Answer: B. 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the [certain number]

<u />

<u>Rephrase the expression</u>

13 less than fourteen times a certain number is twenty-nine more than 7 times that number

14x-13=7x+29

<u>Calculate</u>

Given

14x-13=7x+29

Add 13 on both sides

14x-13+13=7x+29+13

14x=7x+42

Subtract 7x on both sides

14x-7x=7x+42-7x

7x=42

Divide 7 on both sides

7x/7=42/7

x=6

Hope this helps!! :)

PLEASE HELP I WILL MARK THE BRAINLIEST
-BARSIC- [3]

Given: lines l and m are parallel, and line t is a transversal.

angle pair result/justification

1 and 2 are equal (vertical angles)

6 and 8 are equal (corresponding angles)

1 and 4 are equal (alternate exterior angles)

4 and 8 are supplementary angles (i.e. add up to 180 degrees, a straight angle)

Note:

alternate angles are on opposite sides of the transversal, and each attached to a different (parallel) line.

If they are both enclosed by the parallel lines, they are alternate interior angles (examples: angles 2 and 3, 6 and 7)

If they are both outside of the two parallel lines, they are alternate exterior angles (examples: angles 1 and 4, 5 and 8)

P what equation in slope-intercept form represents the line that passes through the points (3,5) and (-9,2)
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

y =\frac{1}{5}x+\frac{22}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, use the slope formula to first find the slope.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{5-2}{3--9}=\frac{3}{3+12}=\frac{3}{15}=\frac{1}{5}

Substitute m=1/5 and the point (3,5) into point slope formula.

y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y-5=\frac{1}{5}(x-3)\\y-5=\frac{1}{5}x -\frac{3}{5}\\y =\frac{1}{5}x+\frac{22}{5}
