The slope of a line is constant because the acceleration is equal to zero.
The slope of a line is always just (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), so in this case:
m=(-7-6)/(4--6)
m=-13/10
m=-1.3
Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.
Answer:
a = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
Solve:
- 4(3a - 4) = 56
- 3a - 4 = 14 (factoring out 4)
- 3a = 18 (adding 4 to both sides)
- a = 6 (dividing by 3)
Another way:
- 4(3a - 4) = 56
- 12a - 16 = 56 (distributive property)
- 12a = 72 (moving like terms)
- a = 6 (dividing by 12)
Distributive Property of Multiplication:
The process of distributing the outside factor to the terms in the parenthesis.
Example:
![4(3a - 4)\\\\4(3a) - 4(4)\\\\12a - 16](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%283a%20-%204%29%5C%5C%5C%5C4%283a%29%20-%204%284%29%5C%5C%5C%5C12a%20-%2016)
I believe the correct answer is a hope this helps if not then sorry
