3/4= j-1/2
first to add 1/2 to both sides to solve for j
3/4 + 1/2= j
second you find a common denominator in order to add 3/4 and 1/2, the common denominator would be 4, you would have to change 3/4 at all because the denominator is already 4 but in order to make the denominator of 1/2, 4 you would have to multiply both the denominator and numerator by 2 so
3/4 + 2/4 = 5/4
so 5/4 =j
to check your answer you plug 5/4 in for j
3/4 = 5/4 -1/2
again you need to find a common denominator between 5/4 and 1/2 which again would be 4, and again you wouldn't change 5/4 but you would multiply both the numerator and the denominator of 1/2 so
3/4= 5/4-2/4
5-2= 3 and you would keep the 4 so
5/4 - 2/4 = 3/4
so j = 5/4
Answer:
the answerrrrrrrrrrr is 3(x+5)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
If x = the amount of 12% and y = the amount of 20%, then x + y = 80
Since we need 80 grams of 15%, 80(.15) = 12.
We are given that .12x + .20y = 12.
We can solve the first equation for x or y. Let's do x.
x = 80 - y
.12(80 - y) + .20y = 12
9.6 - .12y + .20y = 12
.08y = 2.4
y = 30
x = 80 - 30 = 50
Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y itnercept
remember the points go in (x,y) form
also, an easy way to find points is to subsitute values for x andn get values for y
so
6. y=5x-1
some points are (0,-1) (1,4) (2,9) (314)
7. y=-x+8
some points are (0,8) (1,7) (2,6) (3,5)
8. y=0.2x+.3
somepoints are (0,0.3) (1,0.5) (2,0.7) (3,0.9)
9. y=1.5x-3
somepoints are (0,-3) (1,-1.5) (2,0) (3,1.5)
10. y=-1/2x+4
somepoints are (0,4) (1,7/2) (2,3) (3,5/2)
11. y=2/3x-5
some points are (0,-5) (1,-13/3) (2,-11/3) (3,-3)
