Easy Algebra question!

Let's use "x" as a variable.

The equation would be x+x+60 = 240 with "x" being George's weight.

Subtract 60 from both sides and you get 2x = 180.

From there you divide both sides by 2, getting x=90.

"x" is George's weight, so he weighs 90 pounds.

ANSWER: 90 POUNDS

What is z if -1/3+2z=-5/6?
Wittaler [7]
-1/3+2z=-5/6
-2/6+2z=-5/6
Add 2/6 to both sides:
2z=-3/6
2z=-1/2
Divide both sides by 2
z=-1/4

Hope this helps :)

So below m in the chart, is shows what m equals for you to substitute in the equation

So the second blank would be 42.
Since 7*6=42.

Z-m=z+bx , solve for b
KIM [24]

Answer:

b= (Z-m-z)/(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-m=z+bx

Z-m-z=bx [Transpose z of R.H.S to L.H.S] / [Substract z from L.H.S and R.H.S]

(Z-m-z)/(x)=b [Divide by x on both sides i.e, L.H.S and R.H.S]

b= (Z-m-z)/(x)

Hope this helps you.

Identify the type of sequence 1/10, 3/20, 5/30, 7/40...
Dafna11 [192]
Arithmetic sequence: must have a constant common difference.
3/20-1/10=(3-2)/20=1/20
5/30-3/20=(10-9)/60=1/60
Difference is not constant, so no.

Geometric sequence: must have a common ratio
30/20 / (1/10) = 15
5/30 / (3/20) = 100/90 = 10/9 
ratio is not constant, so no.

The answer is (c) neither geometric nor arithmetic
