b + 1.5 = 6

solve the equation and find the value of the variable

Answers

Answer 1
The answer is 4.5. Because 6 minus 1.5 is equal to 4.5
Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf{b=4.5}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of variable, you have to isolate the term of b from one side of the equation.

b+1.5=6

First, you subtract by 1.5 from both sides.

→ b+1.5-1.5=6-1.5

Solve.

Subtract the numbers from left to right.

⇒ 6-1.5=4.5

⇒ b=4.5

Therefore, the correct answer is b=4.5.

I dont really know what to do here, ive done a which is -2 but dont know how to do b. It is not 1/2x -1.5

Answers

Answer:

a)  -2

b)  y = -2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Question (a)

Point A = (-1, -2)

Point B = (7, 2)

[tex]\sf gradient\:of\:AB=\dfrac{change\:in\:y}{change\:in\:x}=\dfrac{2-(-2)}{7-(-1)}=\dfrac{4}{8}=\dfrac12[/tex]

If lines are perpendicular to each other, the product of their gradients will be -1.

Let g be the gradient of the perpendicular line:

[tex]\implies \sf \dfrac12 \times g=-1[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf g=-1 \div \dfrac12=-2[/tex]

Therefore, the gradient of the line perpendicular to AB is -2

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question (b)

[tex]\sf midpoint\:of\:line = \left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\sf let\:point\:A=(x_1,y_1)=(-1,-2)[/tex]

[tex]\sf let\:point\:B=(x_2,y_2)=(7,2)[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies midpoint\:of\:line\:AB = \left(\dfrac{-1+7}{2},\dfrac{-2+2}{2}\right)=(3,0)[/tex]

We now know the gradient and a point on the perpendicular line.

So we can use the point-slope form of a linear equation:

[tex]\sf y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf y-0=-2(x-3)[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf y=-2x+6[/tex]

Think carefully about the angle relationship the following represents.
What is the value of x?
1) 48

2) 66


3) 24


4) 33

Answers

Answer:

x = 66°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles lie on a straight line.

→ A straight line has total 180 degrees

2(x) + 48° = 180°2(x) = 180° - 48°2(x) = 132°x = 66°

Answer:

2) 66

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 48° = 180° (Angles in linear pair)

-> 2x = 180° - 48°

-> 2x = 132°

-> x = 132°/2

-> x = 66°

Zachary is an engineer and studies trains. He found this interesting problem involving a passenger train and a freight train:

A passenger train left New York and traveled North while a freight left from the same place, at the same time and traveled South. After traveling for 6 hours the trains were 720 miles apart. If the passenger train was traveling at 80 mph, how fast was the freight train traveling

Answers

Answer:

40 m/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

6 hours * 80 m/hr      +     6 hours * x m/hr  = 720 miles

6 * 80     +    6 * x   = 720

x = 40 m/hr

Danielle and Esther are selling fruit for a fundraiser. Danielle sold 3 boxes of apples and 2 boxes of oranges for $44.50. Esther sold 5 boxes of apples and 4 boxes of oranges for $81.50. How much did a box of oranges cost?

Answers

Let x be the cost of a box of apples and y be the cost of a box of oranges.

Danielle : 3x + 2y = 44.5

Esther: 5x + 4y = 81.5

3x + 2y = 44.5 --- 1

5x + 4y = 81.5 --- 2

6x + 4y = 89 --- 3

From 2 and 3, we have:

x = 7.5

Subsitute x = 7.5 into 1

3(7.5) + 2y = 44.5

2y = 22

y = 11

Therefore, a box of oranges costs 11 dollars

The manager of a car dealership is offering a bonus to any salesperson who sells 2 cars today. Lately, Kim has been able to sell a car to 20% of the customers she greets. She wants to know the probability that she gets the bonus if she greets 7 customers today. To determine this, she uses a random number generator. The following table shows 50 sets of 7 digits. For each digit, Kim assigns the numbers 0 and 1 to selling a car and the numbers 2 through 9 to not selling a car.


The experimental probability of Kim getting the bonus if she greets 7 customers today is
_______.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the experimental probability of Kim getting the bonus, count the number of sets of digits that have at least two 0's or 1's.

Notice there are 24 sets of numbers that have at least two 0's or 1's. So, the experimental probability of Kim getting the bonus if she greets 7 customers today is  or 0.48.

Find the slope of the line that is parallel and perpendicular to the following equation.
2x - y = 1

Answers

Answer:

Slope of the line that is parallel: 2

Slope of the line that is perpendicular: [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For the parallel line:

Rewrite your equation to slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

y = mx + b

m = slopeb = y-intercept (when x = 0)

2x - y = 1 <== subtract 2x to both sides

-2x     -2x

-y = -2x + 1 <== divide both sides by -1

/-1      /-1

y = 2x - 1

The slope of the line that is parallel to this line is 2.

For the perpendicular line:

*Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocals*

Steps:

1. Take your original slope (2)

2. Flip it (1/2)

3. Change the sign (-1/2)

For a slope of 2, the reciprocal would be: [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Hope this helps!

Note that.

Slopes of parallel line are equal

Slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals

So

2x-y=1y=2x-1

Compare to slope intercept form

slope=m=2

Slope of the parallel line=2

Slope of the perpendicular line=-1/2

Answers

The expression P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4) is an illustration of an exponential expression

The equivalent expression of P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4) is  P2 = 3906250(0.4)^d

How to determine the equivalent equation?

The equation is given as:

P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4)

Apply the law on indices on the expression.

P2 = 100000(0.4)^d * 1/0.4^4

Rewrite as:

P2 = 1/0.4^4 * 100000(0.4)^d

Evaluate the exponent

P2 = 39.0625 * 100000(0.4)^d

Evaluate the product

P2 = 3906250(0.4)^d

Hence, the equivalent expression of P2 = 100000(0.4)^(d - 4) is  P2 = 3906250(0.4)^d

The product of 2 consecutive even integers is 528 find the value of each integers

Answers

Answer :-

Value of two integers are 22 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The product of 2 consecutive even integers is 528

To Find :-

Value of each integers

Solution :-

Let one integer be xother integer be x + 2

According to question,

Product of two integers = 528

↠ (x)(x + 2) = 528

↠ x² + 2x = 528

↠ x² + 2x - 528 = 0

↠ x² + 24x - 22x - 528 = 0

↠ x(x + 24) - 22 (x + 24) = 0

↠ (x + 24) (x - 22) = 0

↠ x = -24 or 22

Hence,

1st integer = 222nd Integer = 22 + 2 = 24

Value of two integers are 22 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, The product of 2 consecutive even integers is 528 and we have to find the value of each integers.

So, Let us assume the 1st consecutive even integer as y and the 2nd as (y + 2)

Now, As it is stated in the question that the product of 2 consecutive even integers is 528, So

[tex] \\ { \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { y(y + 2) = 528 }}}} \: \: \\ \\[/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { {y}^{2} + 2y = 528 }}}} \: \: \\ \\[/tex]

Subtracting both sides by 528 we get :

[tex] \\ { \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { {y}^{2} + 2y - 528= 528 - 528 }}}} \: \: \\ \\[/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { {y}^{2} + 2y - 528= 0 }}}} \: \: \\ \\[/tex]

We have to find two numbers such that,

[tex] \\ { \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { p + q= 24 }}}} \: \: \\ \\[/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { p \times q= 528 }}}} \: \: \\ \\[/tex]

The two numbers are 24 and 22. So,

[tex] \\ { \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { {y}^{2} + (-22y) + 24y - 528= 0 }}}} \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { {y}(y -22) + 24(y - 22)= 0 }}}} \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf { (y -22) (y + 24)= 0 }}}} \\ \\ [/tex]

Whether, the value of y is (-24) or 22.

[tex] \: [/tex]

So, The first consecutive even integer is 22.

Now,

[tex] \\ { \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf {Second \: consecutive \: even \: integer=y \:+2 \: }}}} \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf {Second \: consecutive \: even \: integer=2 2+2 \: }}}} \\ \\ [/tex]

[tex]{ \longrightarrow \qquad{ \pmb{ \sf {Second \: consecutive \: even \: integer=24 }}}} \\ \\ [/tex]

Therefore,

The value of each integer is 22 and 24.

Create an equation that can be used to find the measure of each angle.

Answers

Answer:2x+(x+17)+(x-21)=180

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees.

The equation that can be used to find the measure of each angle is 2x + x + 17 + x - 21 = 180

How to create an equation to determine the angles?

The given parameters are:

P = 2x

Q = x + 17

R = x - 21

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180.

So, we have:

P + Q + R = 180

Substitute known values

2x + x + 17 + x - 21 = 180

Hence, the equation that can be used to find the measure of each angle is 2x + x + 17 + x - 21 = 180
