Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/2x - 4 (the slope for this line is 1/2)

y = 2x - 3 (the slope for this line is 2)

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is always the factor of x (a) in the line equation.

either in

y = ax + b

or in

y - y1 = a(x - x1) with (x1, y1) being a point on the line.

it represents the ratio of "y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point on the line to another.

and so, the slopes of the 2 lines are

1/2

Find the volume of the square pyramid shown. Round to the nearest cubic foot.

Alik [6]

Answer:

3840 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a pyramid = 1/3( base area x height)

Base area = area of a square

area of square = length²

= 24² = 576

volume = 1/3(576 x 20) = increases as the price falls

10 – 2x + 3 = 5x – 9 + 4x please help me solve this equation

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Whenever we're solving an algebraic equation, our goal is always to isolate the variable, which in this case is x. We would do this by performing inverse operations on both sides of the equal sign to cancel values out.

$10-2x + 3 = 5x-9 + 4x$

Combine like terms on both sides of the equal sign

$10+ 3-2x = 5x+ 4x-9 \\13-2x = 9x-9$

Add 2x to both sides to cancel out -2x (addition is the inverse of subtraction)

$13-2x +2x = 9x-9 +2x\\13 = 11x-9$

Add 9 to both sides to cancel out -9 and isolate 11x (addition is the inverse of subtraction)

$13+9 = 11x-9+9\\22=11x$

Divide both sides by 11 to isolate x (division is the inverse of multiplication) $\frac{22}{11} =\frac{11x}{11} \\2=x$

Therefore, x=2.

I hope this helps!
