Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve for y, you need to isolate the y in the equation. Thus, to get rid of the 
multiplied by the y, multiply both sides by the reciprocal, 
. Then, reduce the fraction.
Thus, .
An equation of the form y=ax+b, where y and x are variables, and a and b are constants, is called a linear equation.
The reason it is called linear is because the graph of the equation is a line.
The line passes through the origin only if b=0, as in our problem.
Any line (except vertical lines) represents a proportional relationship in that the change in y is proportional with the change in x. It is not a condition that the line passes through the origin.
In our specific case, y=(1/5)x, means that the change in y is always 1/5 of the change in x. That is, if x changes by 5 units, y changes by 1. If x changes by 10 units, y changes by 2, and so on.
So, the constant of proportionality is 1:5, or 0.2.
B is 3, m is 0.75 x is number of miles
6x-2y=8
Subtract 6x from both sides
-2y=-6x+8
Divide both sides by-2
Y=3x-4
Answer:
∠D = 60
∠E = 99; x = 4
x = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
First things first, the sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°.
∠D + 120 + 95 + 85 = 360
∠D = 360 - 120 - 95 - 85
∠D = 60
∠E + 86 + 100 + 75 = 360
∠E = 360 - 86 - 100 - 75
∠E = 99
24x + 3 = 99
24x = 99 - 3
= 96
x = 96 ÷ 24
x = 4
89 + 5x - 8 + 51 + 3x + 4 = 360
7x + 136 = 360
7x = 360 - 136
= 224
x = 224 ÷ 7
x = 32
