Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's write this equation out.

2/3+1/3x=2x

We want to get all of the variables on the left side and all the numbers on the right side so we can see what number x is equal to. First, Let's subtract 2/x from both sides.

2/3+1/3x-2x=0

We subtract 2/3 from both sides.

1/3x-2x=-2/3

We combine our x values.

-5/3x=-2/3

We divide both sides by -5/3.

x=-5

Find the quotient of 4.13 x 10^-8 and 0.04 x 10^5. In two or more complete sentences, explain each step in your calculations.Inc

poizon [28]

we know that

Quotient is the number resulting from the division of one quantity by another

Let

x--------> the first quantity

y------> the second quantity

q------> the quotient

$q=\frac{x}{y}$ -------> equation 1

in this problem

$x=4.13*10^{-8} \\ y= 0.04*10^{5}$

Substitute the values in the equation 1

$q=\frac{4.13*10^{-8}}{0.04*10^{5}}$

Simplify

$q=\frac{4.13*10^{-8}}{0.04*10^{5}}=\frac{4.13}{0.04}*10^{-8}*10^{-5}=\frac{4.13}{0.04}*10^{-13}\\ \\q=103.25*10^{-13}\\ \\q= (1.0325*10^{2})*10^{-13}\\ \\q= 1.0325*10^{-11}$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The quotient is equal to $1.0325*10^{-11}$

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the g

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is m = -5

4 is your x1

-3 is your y1

Plug into the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 3 = -5(x - 4)

y + 3 = -5x + 20

-3 -3

y = -5x + 17
