Would 2/5x+6/5=y be a proper answer format(i just want to know if it can be =y)
lukranit [14]

yes, it does not matter if the y is at the beginning or at the end. However, most teachers usually prefer to have the y at the beginning as it is easier to read.

Write an equation for the following:
inysia [295]

Answer: 3(x+4)=x+18

Step-by-step explanation: Break down the problem. It says three times the sum of a number and 4. You have to add the number and 4 first. Since you're multiplying by 3, put the sum of a number and 4 in parentheses. This equals the same as eighteen more than the number. It set up how it sounds. Add 18 to the number.

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!
AleksandrR [38]

Ok so first we find the equation that equals one variable.


2y = -x + 9

3x - 6y = -15


We solve for y.


2y = -x + 9

y = -x/2 + 9/2


Then we plug in this y value into the other equation to keep only one variable so we can solve for it.


3x - 6y = -15

3(-x + 9/2) - 6y = -15

-3x + 27/2 - 6y = -15

-9y + 27/2 = -15

-9y = 3/2

-y = 3/18

y = -3/18


Then we plug in this numerical y-value into the first equation which we found out by solving an equation for y.


y = -x/2 + 9/2

-3/18 = -x/2 + 9/2

-84/18 = -x/2

-x = 9 1/3

x = -28/3


Your answer would be (-28/3, -3/18)


Hope this helps!

Point Q is the center of dilation. Line segment L M is dilated to created line segment L prime M prime. The length of L Q is 4 a
koban [17]

Answer:

The length of segment QM' = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Q is the center of dilation

Pre-image (original image) = segment LM

New image = segment L'M'

The length of LQ = 4

The length of QM = 3

The length of LL' = 4

The original image was dilated with scale factor = 2

QM' = ?

To determine segment QM', first we would draw the diagram obtained from the given information.

Find attached the diagram

When a figure is dilated, we would have similar shape in thus cars similar triangles.

Segment L'M' = scale factor × length of LM

Let LM = x

L'M' = 2x

Using similar triangles theorem, ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.

QM/LM = QM'/L'M'

3/x = QM'/2x

6x = QM' × x

Q'M' = 6

The length of segment QM' = 6
