Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the integer is n, half of it is n/2. The next integer is (n+1) and 1/3 of it is (n+1)/3. You want ...

n/2 - (n+1)/3 = 1

n(1/2 -1/3) -1/3 = 1

n/6 = 4/3 . . . . . . . . add 1/3, simplify

n = 6(4/3) = 8

The integer is 8.

Your truck has a weight limit of 2100 pounds. A bag of cement weighs 75 pounds. Write an equality for x, the number of bags of c

Hitman42 [59]

You can haul 28 bags of cement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Weight limit of truck = 2100 pounds

Weight of each bag of cement = 75 pounds

Let,

x be the number of cement bags that you can haul

Weight of each bag * Number of bags = Weight limit

$75x = 2100$

Dividing both sides by 75

$\frac{75x}{75}= \frac{2100}{75}\\x=28$

You can haul 28 bags of cement.

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below?

Fantom [35]

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

m - slope

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (-2, 3) and (1, -3). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{-3-3}{1-(-2)}=\dfrac{-6}{3}=-2\\\\y-(-3)=-2(x-1)\\\\y+3=-2(x-1)$

The standard form: Ax + By = C. Convert:

$y+3=-2(x-1)$ use distributive property

$y+3=-2x+2$ subtract 3 from both sides

$y=-2x-1$ add 2x to both sides

$\boxed{2x+y=-1}\to\boxed{c.}$
