Answer:

a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

3a−6a+2=8a+20−5a ( original equation)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3a−6a+2=8a+20−5a

3a+−6a+2=8a+20+−5a

(3a+−6a)+(2)=(8a+−5a)+(20)(Combine Like Terms)

−3a+2=3a+20

−3a+2=3a+20

Step 2: Subtract 3a from both sides.

−3a+2−3a=3a+20−3a

−6a+2=20

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

−6a+2−2=20−2

−6a=18

Step 4: Divide both sides by -6.

−6a/−6 = 18/-6

a=−3

Graph this line using the slope and y-intercept: y = 1/8x + 4<br> (1/8 is a fraction)
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Two points, (0,4) & (8,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, we can easily find the first point by looking at the +4 in this equation. This should automatically signal to you that the point is (0,4)

Now, we have to look at the 1/8x in the equation.

This 1/8 means that the slope is 1/8!

Now we use the slope and to rise/run to find our next point

We go up 1 from 4 (this is the rise) to get to 5 on the y-axis

Next, we go over 8 horizontally to get to 8 for your x-axis point.

So therefore, our next point is, (8,5)

You can use this rise/run system infinitely and is very useful

Find the unknow measures of y and x.​
Yanka [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 2 m

  y = 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

The side lengths of ΔDEF are 3/9 = 1/3 of those of ΔABC.

  x = DF = 1/3(AB) = (1/3)(6 m)

  x = 2 m

__

Angle measures of ΔDEF are the same as those of the corresponding angles of ΔABC.

  y = ∠B = ∠E = 30°

  y = 30°

Renaldo cut an 8.5 in by 11 in paper diagonally how long is thw diagonal
ivann1987 [24]

Pythagoren theorem states that a²+b²=c². If A is 8.5 and B is 11, you'd get

193.25=c²

Square root both sides to find out that the diagonal is 13.901 inches long

Each leg of an isosceles triangle is 4 meters longer than the base.the perimeter of the triangle is 26meters. Find the lengths o
Natali5045456 [20]

Because the triangle is isosceles, we know that it has 2 equal sides, which are the 2 legs. We can create an equation with the given information:

26 = 2(b + 4) + b

26 = 3b + 8

18 = 3b

b = 6

If the base is 6, add 4 to get 10.

base = 6 meters

leg = 10 meters

other leg = 10 meters

<em>Hope this helps! :)</em>

Ainat [17]

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

60a = b ( divide both sides by a )

60 = \frac{b}{a} ( multiply both sides by 4 )

240 = \frac{4b}{a}
