Answer:

X= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can first simplify the equation

2x+10=x-4

Now just solve i normally

x+10=-4

x=-14

So x is -14

Slope -3/4, through (-2,4)
exis [7]

Answer:

I assume you want the equation for the line in y=mx+b form, if not, you can just transfer this form to standard or intercept. y=(-3/4)x+2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have the slope and a point, plug in the points to the equation y=9-3/4)x+b to get 4=(-3/4)(-2)+b and solve.

During a week-long dry spell, the water level in a pond decreased by 4 in. Per day, except for two days when it decreased by hal
Helga [31]

Answer:

24 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

During a week the water level in a pond decreased by 4 in. Per day,

For two days, it decreased by half that amount = 4\times\frac{1}{2}=2\ inches\ per\ day

Question asked:

How much did the water level decrease in the pond in one week?

Solution:

As we know, there are 7 days in a week.

<u>For 5 days,</u>

Each day water level decreased by = 4 inches

In 5 days, water level decreased by = 4\times5=20\ inches

<u>For exceptional 2 days:</u>

Each day water level decreased by = 2 inches

In 2 days, water level decreased by = 2\times2=4\ inches

Water level decreased in whole week = 20 + 4 = 24 inches

Therefore, water level decreased 24 inches in the pond in one week.

A system of equations is shown below.
prisoha [69]

Given:

The system of equations is

y=1.5x-3

y=1.5x+4

To find:

The true statement about the given system of equations.

Solution:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y=mx+b

Where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We have,

y=1.5x-3

y=1.5x+4

On comparing these two lines with slope intercept form, we get

m_1=1.5,b_1=-3

m_2=1.5,b_2=4

Since the slopes of the lines are equal but the y-intercepts are different, therefore, the two lines are parallel and the system has no solution.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Write the equation of circle b with center B(-2,3) that passes through (1,2)
professor190 [17]

Answer:

(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation for circle is

(x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2

where point (a,b) is coordinate of center of circle and r is the radius.

______________________________________________________

Given

center of circle =((-2,3)

let r be the radius of circle

Plugging in this value of center in standard equation for circle given above we have

(x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2    \ substitute (a,b) \ with (-2,3) \\=>(x-(-2))^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2  \\=>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2    (1)

Given that point (1,2 ) passes through circle. Hence this point will satisfy the above equation of circle.

Plugging in the point (1,2 )  in equation 1 we have

\\=>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2    \\=> (1+2)^2 + (2-3)^2 = r^2\\=> 3^2 + (-1)^2 = r^2\\=> 9 + 1 = r^2\\=> 10 = r^2\\=>  r^2  = 10\\

now we have value of r^2 = 10, substituting this in equation 1 we have

Thus complete equation of circle is =>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = r^2\\=>(x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 10

Solve S=2(lw + lh + wh) for w
vovikov84 [41]
Dividing by 2, we have S/2=lw+lh+wh. After that, we subtract lh from both sides to get S/2-lh=lw+wh. Next, we divide both sides by w to get (S/2)/w=l+h. Next, we divide by S/2 to get 1/w=(l+h)/(S/2). Lastly, we multiply by w and divide by (l+h)/(S/2)  to get w=(S/2)/(l+h)
