Answer:
x is the reciprocal of the difference of a and b.
Step-by-step explanation:
ax=bx+1
Subtract by bx on both sides
ax-bx=1
x(a-b)=1
x= 1/(a-b)
Answer:
3y-x=-18
Step-by-step explanation:
3y-x=-18
3y=x-18
y=1/3x-6
Parallel lines have the same slope
Answer:
5.5 units
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not 100% sure if this is right, since it could be 5 or 6, but since there is a slight diagonality to it, i would say 5.5 units.
Answer: Choice A
Proof:
Replace x with 1 and y with 2. This is because (x,y) = (1,2) so x = 1 and y = 2.
Doing both replacements and simplifying leads to...
2*x - y = 0
2*1 - 2 = 0
2 - 2 = 0
0 = 0
That confirms (x,y) = (1,2) is a point on the line.
It confirms (1,2) is a solution to the equation.
