Answer:
2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
2.4 - 0.15
Using place value :
2 = Unit (2 wholes)
4 = tenth place ( 4 tenths)
To subtract 0.15
0 wholes ; 1 tenth ; 5 hundredth
1 tenth can be split into 10 separate hundredths
Hence,
For 2.4
We have ;
2 wholes ; 3 tenths and 10 hundredths
Subtracting 0.15 ;0 wholes ; 1 tenth ; 5 hundredth
(2 - 0) wholes = 2 whole
(3 - 1) tenth = 2 tenth
(10 - 5) hundredth = 5 hundredth
Hence, the difference between (2.4 and 0.15) is :
2 whole ; 2 tenth ; 5 hundredth
Which is equal to : 2.25
Hi there!

Since U and V are midpoints of the legs, then UV is the average of both WX and ZY.
Therefore:
(ZY + WX)/2 = UV
Substitute in the given expressions:
[(6x + 5) + (x + 7)]/2 = 8x - 3
Simplify by combining like terms:
(7x + 12)/2 = 8x - 3
Multiply both sides by 2:
7x + 12 = 16x - 6
Subtract 7x from both sides and add 6 to both sides:
18 = 9x
Divide both sides by 9:
18/9 = x
x = 2.
Plug in this value of x into the equation for UV:
8(2) - 3 = 16 - 3 = 13.
The slope is the factor in front of x, so slope is 9.
The y intercept is 7 (that's the point of cross the y axis, where x=0)
There are multiple definitions of "standard form" for lines, so here are the two i can think of:
9x - y = -7 (the implicit function form)
or
y-7 = 9*(x-0) (the point-slope form)
Lmk if you have questions.
The books are $5, and the magazines are $10. I’m not sure which way you want it explained but since magazines are twice the price of books, you can solve the equation 3b + 2b = 25. This gives you b=5 which you just multiply by 2 giving you the price of a magazine.
Yes it’s still a line segment. The shape didn’t change in size.
