Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

a/b=3------equation 1

a+b=2-----equation 2

from equation 2

b=2-a

substitute b=2-a in equation 1

a/2-a=3

a=3(2-a)

a=6-3a

a+3a=6

a=6/4

a=3/2

substitute a=3/2 in equation 2

3/2+b=2

3+2b=4

2b=1

b=1/2

a-b=3/2-1/2

a-b=(3-1)/2

a-b=2/2

a-b=1

Write the standard form of the line that contains a slope of 2/3 and passes through the point (1,1). Include your work in your f
Simora [160]

Answer:

2x - 3y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form: Ax + By = C

Given: slope = 2/3 and  passes through the point (1,1)

Point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Plug in

y - 1 = 2/3(x - 1)

Multiply both sides by 3

3(y - 1) = 2(x -1)

Distributive property

3y - 3 = 2x - 2

Since standard form: Ax + By = C so you can re-write the equation:

2x - 2 = 3y - 3

Subtract 3y from both sides

2x - 3y = -3

Add 2 to both sides

2x - 3y = -1

Answer in standard form: 2x - 3y = -1

Solve using substitution. x + 3y = -13 <br><br><br> 5x + 7y = -9
Zarrin [17]
X+3y=-13
x=-3y-13
5(-3y-13) +7y = -9 
-15y -65 +7y = -9 
-8y-65=-9
             65 -

             -74
              /-8
             ------
  y=       9.25

x+3(9.25) = -13
x+27.75= -13
             27.75-

Right triangle 30 60 90
short leg = 1/2 hypo = 4√2 / 2 = 2√2
so x = 2√2

long leg = short leg times √3 = 2√2 * √3 = 2√6
so y = 2√6

answer C. 
x = 2√2 ; y = 2√6

: Find the slope between the two points given. Then, use the slope and point ONE to write the equation of the line in Point-Slop
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

           slope:      \bold{m=3}

      equation:     \bold{y-2=3(x-1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\(1,\,2)\ \implies\ x_1=1\,,\ y_1=2\\(0,\,-1)\ \implies\ x_2=0\,,\ y_2=-1\\\\m=\dfrac{-1-2}{0-1}=\dfrac{-3}{-1}=3

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)      - point-slope form of Equation of the Line

x_1=1\,,\ y_1=2\,,\ m=3\\\\equation:\\{}\qquad\qquad y-2=3(x-1)
