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

Answer:

No.

Can you help me please ?

1.

(Create a table then plot the points)


X | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |

-------------------------

Y | -1 | 3 | 7 | 11 |


4 (0) -1 => 0 - 1 = -1

4 (1) -1 => 4 - 1 = 3

4 (2) -1 => 8 - 1 = 7

4 (3) -1 => 12 - 1 = 11


Just apply the table method to the others and you should be fine! :)

Find the equation of a line that passes through the given points<br>(-6,-5) and (6,-13)
NeTakaya

Answer:

y+5=-3/4(x+6)

or in slope intercept

y= -3/4x-38/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line we must have a slope and a point. To find the slope we use the slope formula and substitute (x,y) points in it as shown below:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{-5--13}{-6-6}=\frac{-5+13}{-6+-6}=\frac{8}{-12}=\frac{-3}{4}

Now that we have the slope, plug in the slope and choose one point to plug into the point slope formula. Use the point-slope form to write the equation, then simplify and convert into the slope intercept form.

(y--5)=-3/4(x--6)

y+5=-3/4(x+6)

y+5=-3/4x-18/4

y=-3/4x-18/4-20/4

y= -3/4x-38/4
