Answer:
slopes is the ratio of the change in the y value over the change in the x value
Answer:
9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Do the question algebraically, represented by this equation:
let x be the shorter piece
x + (x + 8) = 26 (longer piece is 8 units longer)
Remove brackets
x + x + 8 = 26 Combine like terms
2x + 8 = 26 Start isolating "x"
2x + 8 - 8 = 26 - 8 Subtract 8 from both sides
2x = 18
2x/2 = 18/2 Divide both sides by 2
x = 9 shorter piece
The shorter piece would be 9 inches.
If you needed the longer piece too:
longer piece = x + 8
x + 8
= 9 + 8
= 17
The longer piece would be 17 inches.
Check your answer:
Longer + Shorter = 26 Substitute the lengths
17 + 9 = 26 Add
26 = 26 same number
LS = RS left side equals right side
The answer is correct.
=2 4/5
8/10+2
2+8/10=2 8/10
4/5- -2/1
(4x1)-(-2x5) divided by 5x1
=4- -10 divided by 5
=14/5
=2 4/5
Answer:
let x be chips and y be sodas
8x + 4y = 5 ---> for the first hint
4x + 8y = 7------> second hint
0.25 cents is how much chips costs
and 0.75 cents is how much sodas costs
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
JT = 19. 3(4) + 7
37 = CJ + JT
37 = 3x + 6 + 3x + 7
37 = 6x + 13
24 = 6x
X = 4
