Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, isolate the like terms, and try to keep the variable positive:

Add p to both sides:

-1=5-9p+11p

Subtract 5 from both sides:

-6=-9p+11p

Combine like-terms:

-6=2p

Divide:

-3=p

I hope this helps! :D

Answer:

p= 1/3 or 0.33 repeating

Step-by-step explanation:

5-19p=-p-1

5=18p-1

6=18p

divide by 18

6/18 = 1/3 or 0.33 repeating

Determine whether each set of side lengths could be the sides of a right triangle. Drag and drop each set of side lengths to the

Neko [114]

Answer:

10.5cm,20.8cm,23.3cm — yes
6cm, 22.9cm,20.1cm — no

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sides form a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the shorter two sides will equal the square of the longest side.

1. 10.5^2 + 20.8^2 = 23.3^2 . . . . . true algebraic statement; right triangle

2. 6^2 +20.1^2 = 440.01 ≠ 22.9^2 = 524.41 . . . . . this is an obtuse triangle

15 balls are in bag of red and blue balls if 6 is red how many red balls must be added to bag so that probability is 2÷3

Brut [27]

Answer: 12 red balls must be added

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting out with 15 balls, 6 red implies 9 blue. If blue remains 9, then we expect red to be 18 for a probability at 2/3. 18-6 = 12

La ecuación de la recta que pasa por los puntos (2,-1) y (1,-5) es:

77julia77 [94]

Given:

A line passes through the points (2,-1) and (1,-5).

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

If a line passes through the two points, then the equation of the line is

$y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

The line passes through the points (2,-1) and (1,-5). So, the equation of the line is

$y-(-1)=\dfrac{-5-(-1)}{1-2}(x-2)$

$y+1=\dfrac{-5+1}{-1}(x-2)$

$y+1=\dfrac{-4}{-1}(x-2)$

$y+1=4(x-2)$

Using distributive property, we get

$y+1=4(x)+4(-2)$

$y+1=4x-8$

Subtract 1 from both sides.

$y+1-1=4x-8-1$

$y=4x-9$

Therefore, the correct option is B.
