Slope of the equation is -9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Write the equation in slope-intercept form y = mx + b
9x + 2y = 9
2y = -9x + 9
y = -9/2 x + 9/2
⇒ Slope, m = -9/2
If the pattern continues, so that each term is separated by a distance of 3, then the sequence is given by the recursive rule

From this definition, we can write
in terms of
:




and so on, up to

(notice how the subscript on <em>a</em> and coefficient on 3 add up to <em>n</em>)
or

Given
81 red balls
Number of balls per row = Number of rows
Procedure
b = Number of balls
r = Number of rows
T = Total number of balls
b = r
![\begin{gathered} T=b\cdot r \\ Given\text{ b=r} \\ T=b^2 \\ b=\sqrt[]{T} \\ b=\sqrt[]{81} \\ b=9 \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20T%3Db%5Ccdot%20r%20%5C%5C%20Given%5Ctext%7B%20b%3Dr%7D%20%5C%5C%20T%3Db%5E2%20%5C%5C%20b%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7BT%7D%20%5C%5C%20b%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B81%7D%20%5C%5C%20b%3D9%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
The answer is:
Number of rows = 9
Number of balls = 9
Answer:
Okay, do you have any images or choices?
Answer:
Your final answer is either
x≥-2 if your initial inequality was
6x+2≤2(5-x)
OR
x≤-2
if your initial inequality was
6x+2≥2(x-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
As shown you have an equality, not an inequality.
-6x+2=2(5-x) distribute through parenthesis
-6x+2=2(5)+2(-x)
-6x+2=10-2x add 2x to both sides
2x-6x+2=10-2x+2x
-4x+2=10 subtract 2 from both sides
-4x+2-2=10-2
-4x=8 divide both sides by -4
-4x/(-4) = 8/(-4)
x = -2
With the ≥ or ≤ sign you would solve the exact same way
except for the point where when dividing both sides by
-4 requires you to reverse the inequality.
Your final answer is either
x≥-2 if your initial inequality was
6x+2≤2(5-x)
OR
x≤-2
if your initial inequality was
6x+2≥2(x-2)
