A - 3b = 4 . . . . (1)
a = b - 2 . . . . . (2)
Putting (2) into (1), we have
b - 2 - 3b = 4
-2b = 4 + 2 = 6
b = 6/-2 = -3
From (1), a = b - 2 = -3 - 2 = -5
Hence, solution = (-5, -3)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Nick's age = x years
Lina's age =3*x = 3x
After 6 years,
Lina's age = 3x + 6
Nick's age = x + 6
3x + 6 = 2*(x+6)
3x + 6 = 2*x + 2*6
3x + 6 = 2x + 12 {Subtract 6 form both sides}
3x +6 - 6 = 2x + 12 - 6
3x = 2x + 6 {subtract 2x from both sides}
3x - 2x = 2x + 6 - 2x
x = 6
Nick's age = 6 years
Lina's age =3*6 = 18 years
4/x = x/9
36 = x²
6 = x
The geometric mean between 4 and 9 is 6
Answer: False
Answer:
The ratio of green apples to red apples is .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Number of red apples = 21
Number of green apples = 18
We have to find out the ratio of green apples to red apples.
Solution,
For finding the ratio we have to divide the number of green apples to the number of red apples.
So, we can frame the above sentence as;
Ratio = number of green apples/number of red apples
Now substituting the values, we get;
Ratio= 18/21 = 6/7
Hence The ratio of green apples to red apples is . 6/7
Y2-y1/x2-x1 is slope so
9-9/14-(-20) so you get 0/34 which means there is no slope since they have the same y (the equation would be y=0x+9 therefore y=9)
Which makes sense since the equation is a straight line
