Let the number be x.
x/3 + 12 = 46
Subtract 12 from both sides and you will get:
x/3 = 34
Multiply both sides by 3:
x = 102
Number 4.
Four is a linear, it is the first composite number, as well as the first non-prime number (after 1 of course).
The formula for slope is y=mx+b
so if you re arrange the equation from 8y-16x=12
to 8y=16x+12
the slope will be the coefficient of x =16
1. 6 is the answer
2. 56 is divisible by 14
First we put the equation in y = mx + b form where m is ur slope and b is ur y int.
2x - 5y = 10
-5y = -2x + 10
y = 2/5x - 2.......so ur slope is 2/5 and ur y int is (0,-2) <==
to find ur x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
2x - 5y = 10
2x - 5(0) = 10
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5......and ur x int is (5,0) <==
another way to find the y int is to sub in 0 for x and solve for y...but u might as well solve it by putting it in y = mx + b form because that way u have ur slope as well.
