(2/3) x + (2/5) x
(10/15)x + (6/15) x = (16/15) x
Answer:
3x -2y = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
The parallel line will have a new constant that can be found by substituting the given point for x and y.
-3x +2y = -3(0) +2(7) = 14
An equation for the parallel line is ...
-3x +2y = 14
__
In standard form, the leading coefficient is positive, so the standard form equation is ...
3x -2y = -14
Answer:
300 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 4/5 of students do not wear glasses, 1/5 of students do.
There are 60 students who wear glasses, so let 'x' represent the number of students who wear glasses
(1/5)x = 60 is our equation. "One-fifth of the number of students who wear glasses is 60"
Now solve for x
(1/5)x = 60
x = 300 (multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the fraction)
