Leave the first fraction in the equation alone.
Turn the division sign into a multiplication sign.
Flip the second fraction over (find its reciprocal).
Multiply the numerators (top numbers) of the two fractions together. ...
Multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) of the two fractions together.

What is the equation of a line passing through the points (-3,<br> -2) and (2, 0)?

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$y=0.400x+-0.800$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

point A = (-3, -2)
point B = (2, 0)

To write the equation of the line that passes through two points we have to write the points in slope intercept form.

Formula for slope intercept:

$y=mx+b$

M is equal to the slope of the two points, so first we need to fine the slope of the two points.

$(-3,-2)=(x1,y1)$
$(2,0)=(x2,y2)$

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$
$m=\frac{0--2}{2--3} =\frac{2}{5}$
$m=\frac{2}{5} =0.400$

$y=mx+b$
$y=-2$
$m=0.400$
$x=-3$
$-2=0.400(-3)+b$
$0.400\times-3=-1.20$
$-2+1.2=-0.800$
$b=-0.800$

$y=0.400x+-0.800$

Hope this helps.

A prism with a length of 4 inches, height of 4 inches, and width of 3 inches. How many more 1 in. cubes does the container need

-Dominant- [34]

There are 10 number of 1 cubic inches box required to fill the container completely.

<h3>What is a cuboid?</h3>

It is defined as the six-faced shape, a type of hexahedron in geometry.

It is a three-dimensional shape.

We have:

A prism with a length of 4 inches, height of 4 inches, and width of 3 inches.

The volume of the prism box = 4×4×3 = 48 cubic inches

Here some data are missing.

We are assuming there are 38 1 cubic inches box already in the big box.

So,

= 48 - 38

= 10

Thus, there are 10 number of 1 cubic inches box required to fill the container completely.

Andrew is about to leave for school. If he walks at a speed of 50 meters per minute, he will arrive 3 minutes after the bell rin

Mariana [72]

Answer:

The answer is: 13 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First Let us form equations with the statements in the two scenario

$time=\frac{distance}{speed}$

Let the time in which the bell rings be 'x'

1. If Andrew walks (50 meters/minute), he arrives 3 minutes after the bell rings. Therefore the time of arrival at this speed = (3 + x) minutes

$3 + x =\frac{distance}{50}\\distance = 50(3+x) - - - - - (1)$

2. If Andrew runs (80 meters/minute), he arrives 3 minutes before the bell rings. Therefore the time taken to travel the distance = (x - 3) minutes

$x - 3 = \frac{distance}{80} \\distance = 80(x-3) - - - - - (2)$

In both cases, the same distance is travelled, therefore, equation (1) = equation (2)

$50(3+x)=80(x-3)$

$150 +50x=80x-240\\$

Next, collecting like terms:

$150 + 240 = 80x - 50x\\390 = 30x\\30x = 390\\$

dividing both sides by 3:

x = 390÷30 = 13

∴ x = 13 minutes

When 12 is decreased by twice a number, the result is -14. Find the number.

Talja [164]

Answer:

-13

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number is 2h (h is the variable) so the equation is 12-2h=-14 and - 13 times 2 is -26 so the equation is now 12-26=-14
