Why equals 3/4 X -12 and why equals negative 4X - 31

Mathematics
1 answer:
Helga [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-4, -15)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want the solution to ...

  y = 3/4x -12

  y = -4x -31

Equating the two expressions for y gives ...

  3/4x -12 = -4x -31

  3/4x = -4x -19 . . . . . add 12

  3x = -16x -76 . . . . . multiply by 4

  19x = -76 . . . . . . . . . add 16x

  x = -76/19 = -4 . . . . divide by 19

  y = (3/4)(-4) -12 = -15 . . . . use the first equation to find y

The solution to this system of equations is ...

  (x, y) = (-4, -15)

Point K is on line segment JL. Given JK = 2x – 2, KL
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

KL = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

JK + KL = JL

2x – 2 + x – 9 =  2x + 8

Combine like terms

3x -11 = 2x+8

Subtract 2x from each side

3x-2x -11 = 2x+8-2x

x-11 = 8

Add 11 to each side

x-11+11 = 8+11

x = 19

KL = x – 9

     = 19-9

     = 10

Relate Fractions, Decimals, and Money. Write the money amount as a fraction in terms of dollars. The problems are $0.66 and $1.0
ozzi
You convert a decimal to a fraction by putting the digits to the right of the decimal point over "1" followed by the same number of zeros. (Most folks learn this in 3rd or 4th grade.)

0.66 = 66/100 . . . . . 2 decimals, so the denominator is 100

Then you reduce the fraction by canceling common factors. It helps to know your times tables and divisibility rules. (Or you can have your calculator do it.)

0.66 = 66/100 = 33/50
1.00 = 100/100 = 1
