Answer:

100 red bricks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say red bricks is equal to 5x

Gray bricks is equal to 2x

We have an equation

2x + 5x = 140

= 7x = 140

Divide through by 7 to get the value of x

X = 140/7

X = 20

Red bricks = 5(x)

= 5(20)

= 100

Gray bricks = 2(x)

= 2(20)

= 40

Therefore in conclusion the number of red bricks is 100.

Find the slope of the line passing through (6,8) and (-10,3)
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

5/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula to find slope when 2 points are given.

m = rise/run

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

m = 3 - 8 / -10 - 6

m = -5 / -16

m = 5/16

The slope of the line is 5/16.

What is y=2x-3 y=-3/4x-1/4 with work shown please help
makvit [3.9K]
2X-3 = -3/4x -1/4
Add 3 on both sides: 2X = -3/4x + 2.75
Add -3/4x on both sides: 2.75X = 2.75
Divide 2.75 on both sides: x= 1
