okay I tried my best bc ur friend lujenna requested me to :D
Answer:
1st question,<u> are you are able to cut the four pieces of licorice?</u> <u>if so cut them into 4 equal pieces and divide them among the 4 people</u>, making sure that each person gets an equal 9 pieces.
Step-by-step explanation:
9 pieces of licorice cut equally into 4 smaller bits then distributed throughout 4 people would play as this.
9x4=36
36/4 = 9
Each person would get 9 smaller pieces of licorice
Solving:
-7 + y = 3 + 2y
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.
-7 + y + -2y = 3 + 2y + -2y
Combine like terms: y + -2y = -1y
-7 + -1y = 3 + 2y + -2y
Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0
-7 + -1y = 3 + 0
-7 + -1y = 3
Add '7' to each side of the equation.
-7 + 7 + -1y = 3 + 7
Combine like terms: -7 + 7 = 0
0 + -1y = 3 + 7
-1y = 3 + 7
Combine like terms: 3 + 7 = 10
-1y = 10
Divide each side by '-1'.
y = -10
Hope it helps. (:
Answer:
One equation would be y= -1.5x +11
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's a table to show the coordinates
x: y:
8 -1
-------------------
-4 17
the x coor. 8 goes down by 12 to get to the next x coor. -4.
8-12= -4
the y coor. -1 goes up by 18 to get to the next y coor. 17.
-1+18= 17
therefore 18/-12 is -1.5 which can be your k in y=kx+b.
Check your answer.
-1.5*8= -12 but when you add 11, you get the y coor. -1
Do the same with the other x coor.
-4*-1.5= 6 + 11 =17
11 can be your b in the slope-intercept form equation.
One equation may be y = -1.5x +11
Answer:
1. x = - 1 -y over 2
2. x = -4(2+y) over 3
