How did you do 2 step equations but in a word problem? Thankyou

Answer:

A example:  A customer brought 5 quarts of lemonade from Leah's stand. She also tipped Leah an additional $2. The customer finally paid a total of $27 including the tip. How much is each quart of lemonade worth? If x is what the lemonade is worth, write an equation to figure out the total.

In this problem, the x is what the lemonade is worth. So you should start with a 5x. The customer also tipped $2. So you should add 2 to the 5x. We also know the total, 27.

With the information we can form an equation.

5x + 2 = 27.

To solve, we can subtract 2 from both sides and finally dived by 5 on both sides as well. Your final answer should be x = 5.

Hopefully this is what you're looking for, sorry for being late!

What is the value of |−8.6|<br><br> a −8.6<br> b −1.4<br> c 1.4<br> d 8.6<br> thanks
nikklg [1K]

Hi!

When a number has lines on the outside of it like that, it means that it's the distance from 0. It's known as the absolute value.

|−8.6|'s distance from 0 is 8.6.

The answer is d 8.6

Hope this helps! :)

What is the slope of the line that contains the points (-4,2) and (6,-3)?-
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula is \frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1}}

When we plug that in we get \frac{-3-2}{6- (-4)} = \frac{-5}{10} = -\frac{1}{2}

Hope this helps!

Find the distance between the lines<br> Y=3x+10<br> Y=3x-20<br> AND <br> Y=3/2x+3/2<br> Y=3/2x-5
rosijanka [135]
At first we need to know how to find the distance between two parallel lines
The parallel lines which have the same slope 
If we have two parallel lines ⇒ y₁ = mx + c₁   and    y₂ = mx + c₂
So, the distance between y₁ and y₂ = d = \frac{|c_{1} - c_{2}|}{\sqrt{1 + m^{2}}}
========================================================

Part (1):
=======

<span>The distance between the lines
</span>
<span> Y₁ = 3x + 10    and       Y₂ = 3x - 20</span>
∴ m = 3  , c₁ = 10  and  c₂ = -20
∴ d = \frac{| 10 - (-20)|}{\sqrt{1 + 3^{2}}}= \framebox{9.5}

========================================================

Part (2):
=======

<span>The distance between the lines
</span>
Y₁ = <span>3/2 x + 3/2</span>    and       Y₂ = <span>3/2 x - 5</span>
∴ m = 3/2 = 1.5  , c₁ = 3/2 = 1.5   and  c₂ = -5
∴ d = \frac{| 1.5- (-5)|}{\sqrt{1 + 1.5^{2}}}= \framebox{3.6}
