2.5(a + 4) + 0.5a = 12.4

Mathematics
1 answer:
finlep [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a=0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

First I distributed 2.5 into (a+4) and got (2.5a+10)+0.5a=12.4. I then combined like terms which are 2.5a and 0.5a and got 3a+10=12.4. I subtracted 10 from both sides to get rid of it and got 3a=2.4. Later, I divided 3 from both sides to get a which comes out to be 0.8.

Hope this helps you :)

Find the slope given the two points. (2, -6) and (2, 3)
kifflom [539]

Answer: Undefined

The x coordinates are the same, so a vertical line forms. All vertical lines have undefined slopes.

We can see it through the slope formula

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

m = (3-(-6))/(2-2)

m = (3+6)/(2-2)

m = 9/0

We cannot divide by zero, so the result is undefined.
