Answer:

a = -11, 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

-7 =  |a-3| / -2

Multiply both sides by -2:

|a - 3| = 14

So a - 3 = 14

Giving a = 17

or

a - 3 =- -14

giving a = -11.

Checking these values:

-7 = |17-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7  

- so a = 17 is a solution.

-7 = |-11-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7

so a = -11 is also a solution.

A line passes through (2, 4) and (-2, 2). Find the value of y if (6, y) lies on the line. Not sure how the 3 was brought into th
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Well, that is simple. You first must find the slope of the line from the 2 given points by using the slope formula. Which is y2-y1/x2-x1. So 2-4/-2-2 which equals -2/-4 which is 1/2. So the slope is 1/2. Now we can use the slope intercept form which is y=mx+b to find the slope equation. So we plug in one the points, say (2,4) and get y=1/2x+3. So now we plug in (6,y) Since we know x we can find y. y=1/2(6)+3 which gives us y=6. So y is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The graph of a system of parallel lines will have no solutions. </u>

  • Always

Because they will never intersect, having same slopes.

=========================

<u>The graph of a system of equations with different slopes will have no solutions. </u>

  • Never

Because they will intersect exactly once, having different slopes.

If ΔABC ≌ ΔRPQ , ∠A = 35˚, ∠C=75˚ , Find the measure of ∠Q. *​
Norma-Jean [14]
<h3>Answer:  angle Q = 75 degrees</h3>

Explanation:

The order of ABC and RPQ is important so we can match up the angles like so

  • angle A = angle R .... first letters
  • angle B = angle P .... second letters
  • angle C = angle Q ... third letters

Meaning that angle Q = 75 since angle C is this measure.
