Transform the equation to isolate x: ax = bx + 1. How is
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

x=\frac{1}{a-b}

The value of x is inversely proportional to the difference of <em>a</em> and <em>b</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is ax-bx+1

We factor the left hand side to get:

(a-b)x=1

We divide both sides by: a-b

x=\frac{1}{a-b}

Observe that the difference of a and b is in the denominator.

The whole is of the form: x\propto \frac{1}{a-b}

The value of x is inversely proportional to the difference of <em>a</em> and <em>b</em>.

The measure of x is 24 degrees
One straight line is 180 degrees
We already have another line that forms an angle with the straight line and it gives u 156
So just subtract 156 from 180 to see what remains and that’s the answer

what is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through (5, -4) and has a slope of 3/4?
Troyanec [42]
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/4
(5,-4)...x = 5 and y = -4
now we sub
-4 = 3/4(5) + b
-4 = 15/4 + b
-4 - 15/4 = b
-16/4 - 15/4 = b
- 31/4 = b....or - 7 3/4 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3/4x + (-31/4) or y = 3/4x - 31/4
