Answer:
<h3>-3</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
For two parallel lines. their slope are equal
Find the slope of each of the lines
For line A;
m = 0 -y/0+1
mA = -y/1
For line B;
mB = 9 - 3/8 - 6
mB = 6/2
mB = 3
since their slope are equal hence mA = mB
-y/1 = 3
-y = 3
y = -3
Hence the value of y is -3
Remark
Let the pigs = p
Let the chickens = c
Givens
30 heads is another way of saying that there were 30 creatures in the barnyard. In addition each chicken has 2 legs and each pig has 4
c + p = 30
2C + 4P = 100 (2) Divide (2) by 2
C + 2P = 50 (3) Subtract (1) from (3)
<u>C + P = 30</u>
P = 20
So there were 20 pigs.
Answer:
x *2 + (28-x)*4 = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total number of questions in the paper = 28
Out of these 28 questions let us say that x number of questions are of 2 points and 28-x questions are of 4 points.
Also, the complete test is of 100 marks
Thus, the linear equation representing the
x *2 + (28-x)*4 = 100
Answer:
1.9 degrees above the normal temperture
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal temperture: 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit
100.5 - 98.6 = 1.9
Ok It depends upon what the order of the terms might be
If we consider that the positive mixed number is the first term and the negative mixed number is the second term and we consider "difference" to be subtraction.....then the result is positive
For example
(3 + 1/2) - [ -(1 + 1/2)] =
(3 +1/2) + (1 + 1/2) = 5 since subtracting a negative results in a positve
But....if we had the reverse order with the same operation, we would have
-(1 + 1/2) - (3 + 1/2) and the result is - 5
Hence.......I would go with "sometimes"
