A-2b=-10
add 2b on both sides
a=2b-10
add 10 to both sides
a+10=2b
divide both sides by 2
a/2+10/2=a/2+5=b
b=5+a/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Using the quadratic formula:

Since the discriminant is negative, -31, there are no real roots
√29/2 since cotangent deals the reciprocal of tangent and cotangent value is adjacent side/opposite side
3d + 8 = 2d - 7 equals d = -15.
First, subtract 2d from both sides. Your problem should look like: 3d + 8 - 2d = -7.
Second, simplify 3d + 8 - 2d to get d + 8. Your problem should look like: d + 8 = -7.
Third, subtract 8 from both sides. Your problem should look like: d = -7 - 8.
Fourth, simplify -7 - 8 to get -15. Your problem should look like: d = -15, which is your answer.
Hopefully this helps, I'm not exactly sure what you meant by "is equations," but this is how you solve the problem.
Pounds: 10 20 30
Kilos: 4.5 9 13.5
half of 20 is 10, and half of 9 is 4.5. So every 10 pounds is 4.5 kilos. Add 10 to 20 to get 30, and add 4.5 to 9 to get 13.5. Both parts of the ratio table are increasing at the same rate (either 10 eachtime or 4.5 each time).
