The value of a in the equation ax + y = 5 , if x = 2 and y = 3 is a) – 1 b) 0 c) 1

sasho [114]

Answer:

c) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

=> ax+y = 5

Putting x =2, y =3

=> a(2)+3 = 5

=> 2a = 5-3

=> 2a = 2

Dividing both sides by 2

=> a = 1

What is the length of ST?

defon

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume this is a number line were given.

Distance of S from 0 = 4 units

Distance of T from 0 = 9 units

Length of ST = the difference between T and S

ST = |9 - 4| = 5 units = 5 cm

This means S and T are 5 cm apart.
