Hello from MrBillDoesMath
Answer: + 4/7, 6 (13/14)
Discussion:
Let L be the larger of the two numbers and S the smaller of the two. Then the first sentence translates into this:
-6L - L = -4 =>
-7L = -4 => (divide both sides by -7)
L = - (-4)/(-7) = + 4/7 (*)
The second sentence translates to
2 (L + S) = 15 => (divide both sides by 2)
(L +S) = 15/2 => (subtract L from each side)
S = 15/2 - L = 15/2 - 4/7 (using (*) above)
So
S = 15*7/(2*7) - (4*2)/(7*2) (combine over common denominator of 14)
S = 105/14 - 8/14 = 97/14 = 6 13/14
Something is crazy here! While 2(L +S) = 15 -- check it out -- our larger number L ( =4/7) is actually smaller than the S number (6 13/14)! Maybe I should have called them Y and X, respectively, as you suggested!
Thank you,
Mr. B
Start at (0, 135) and work your way down 15 and over one each time. Your next point would be (1, 120)
Answer:
92.5 centimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
The one-meter snake showed up as 2 cm in the developed photo. Since there are 100 centimeters in a meter, you subtract the length of the snake in centimeters by the length it shows up in the picture. 100-2 is 88, so that would be the difference. To find the length of the wall, you add the difference to how it showed up in the picture. 88+4.5=92.5.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form 
or 
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
In this problem we have
Substitute the values and solve for k
therefore
the equation of the line is equal to
