Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x = 1/7x + 5

1/2x - 1/7x = 5

7/14x - 2/14x = 5

5/14x = 5

x = 5 * 14/5

x = 14

Find the value of y in the equation attached to this question
dlinn [17]

Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplify 3^5 to 243.

{9}^{y}=\frac{243\times {9}^{6}}{{27}^{3}}

2) Simplify {9}^{6} to 531441.

{9}^{y}=\frac{243\times 531441}{{27}^{3}}

3)  Simplify  243\times 531441 to  129140163.

{9}^{y}=\frac{129140163}{{27}^{3}}

4) Simplify  {27}^{3}  to  19683.

{9}^{y}=\frac{129140163}{19683}

5) Simplify  \frac{129140163}{19683} to 6561.

{9}^{y}=6561

6) Convert both sides to the same base.

9^y=9^4

7)  Cancel the base of 9 on both sides.

y=4

I don’t know how to solve this
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) =( 8, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 5)

m = \frac{-5+3}{0-8} = \frac{-2}{-8} = \frac{1}{4}

Note the line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 5 ) ⇒ c = - 5

y = \frac{1}{4} x - 5 ← equation of line

Which choice is the equation of a line that passes through the point (–6, –2) and is perpendicular to the line represented by th
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

  B.  y = 1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is -3, so the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(-3) = 1/3. This eliminates choices A and C.

We can find the y-intercept (b) if we use the given point values in the equation ...

  y = 1/3x +b

we get ...

  -2 = (1/3)(-6) +b

  -2 = -2 +b . . . simplify

  0 = b . . . . . . . add 2

So, the equation of the perpendicular line through the given point is ...

  y = 1/3x . . . . matches choice B

_____

<em>Alternate solution method</em>

You can try the given point in the given equations. You will find that only the equation of choice B will work.
