Distributive Property

Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-6(t + 2) = 18

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>t</u></em>

  1. [Distributive Property] Distribute -6:                                                             -6t - 12 = 18
  2. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 12 on both sides:                                 -6t = 30
  3. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -6 on both sides:                                t = -5

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-8, 2) and (-4, -3)?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

y = (-6/13)x + (4/13).,

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of the line is:

y = mx + b, where "m" is the slope and "b" gives the y-intercept

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-2 - 4)/(5 - (-8))

m = -6/13

y = (-6/13)x + b

the line passes through the point (-8,4) means that for x = -8, y = 4

4 = (-6/13)(-8) + b

b = 4 - (-6/13)(-8)

b = 4/13

the equation of the line that passes through the points (-8,4) and (5,-2) is:

y = (-6/13)x + (4/13).

A group of adults and students went on a class trip to Washington, DC. The number of male students was 1 more than 7 times the n
sp2606 [1]
Let the number of adults be x, then number of male students is 1 + 7x and the number of female students is (1 + 7x)/2.
x + 1 + 7x + (1 + 7x)/2 = 82
2x + 2 + 14x + 1 + 7x = 164
23x = 164 - 2 - 1 = 161
x = 161/23 = 7

Therefore, number of male students is 1 + 7(7) = 1 + 49 = 50
and the number of female students is 50/2 = 25.
