L# = 1 + 3S#
8S# - 2L# = 10

8S# - 2(1 + 3S#) = 10
8S# - 2 + 6S# = 10
14S# = 12
S# = 6/7

L# = 1 + 3(12/14)
L# = 25/7

What is the slope of the line in the graph?

Viktor [21]

Answer:

The slope of the line in the graph is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is determined by rise over run. Meaning that the number of units the slope goes up/down divided by the number of units the slope goes to the left/right is the slope. The rise is one, and the run is one. 1 over 1 equals 1.

Which expression uses the greatest common factor and the distributive property to rewrite the sum 7 + 75

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

$75 + 45$ $= 15(3 + 5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$75 + 45$ -- Corrected

Required

Use the GCF to write it as a distributive property

First, we find the GCF of 75 and 45

$45 = 3 * 3 * 5$

$75 = 3 * 5 * 5$

The common factor is:

$GCF = 3 * 5$

$GCF = 15$

So, $75 + 45$ becomes

$75 + 45$ $= 15 * 3 + 15 * 5$

Factorize

$75 + 45$ $= 15(3 + 5)$

Hence, the sum has been rewritten as $15(3 + 5)$
