Answer: y = -1x + 8

Step-by-step explanation: linear equations must be written in the format

y = mx + b from.

m represents the slope which it -1

b represents the y-intercept which is 8.

Just substitute the slope and y-intercept in the m and b places and that is a linear equation.

Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. If

Aleks04 [339]

<span>Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. For every game, there is 2 team playing. The order is not important because A vs B is same as B vs A
So you just need to makes a combination of 2 that have a result of 21. If there is t number of teams, the number of matches would be:
tC2 = t!/2!(t-2)! = 21
</span>t! / (t-2)! = 21 *2
(t)(t-1)= 42
t^2 -t -42=0
(t-7)(t+6)
t=7 ; t=-6

Excluding the minus result, you got 7 teams.

How can I solve ¾ - (-5/12)?

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

$1 \frac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{4}+ \frac{5}{12} =?\\$

The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.

$(\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{3}{3} )$ + $(\frac{5}{12}$ × $\frac{1}{1})=?$

Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes

$\frac{9}{12} + \frac{5}{12}$

The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.

$\frac{9+5}{12} = \frac{14}{12}$

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 14 and 12 using

GCF(14,12) = 2

14÷2 / 12÷2 =7/6

The fraction

7/6

is the same as

7÷6

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so

7/6= $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Therefore:

3/4 − (−5/12) = $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Solution by Formulas

Apply the fractions formula for subtraction, to

3/4 − (−5/12)

and solve

(3×12) − (−5×4) 4×12

=3/6− (−20/48)

=56/48

Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF( 56,48) = 8

56÷8 / 48÷8 =7/6

Convert to a mixed number using

long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so

7/6= $1 \frac{1}{6}$

Therefore:

3/4 − (-5/12) = $1 \frac{1}{6}$

-7x - 2y = 19<br> 4x + y = -12<br> Solve the system

nalin [4]

-7x - 2y = 19

4x + y = -12

Set y equal to each other (opposite signs are fine and you could also set x equal instead of y)

-7x - 2y = 19

8x + 2y = -76

Add equations together

x = -52

Plug x value into an equation

4(-52) + y = -12

Solve for y

-208 + y = -12

y = 196

Hope this helps! ;)
