Answer:
Micah's solution is wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
Micah solves a linear equation and concludes that x = 0 is the solution. His work is shown below.
(1 – 3x) = 4(– + 2)
0 = x
Which statement is true about Micah’s solution?
Micah’s solution is wrong.
There are no values of x that make the statement true.
Micah’s solution is correct, and the value of x that makes the statement true is 0.
Micah should have divided by .
Micah should have subtracted
Solution
First solve for the value of x
Given
(1 – 3x) = 4(– + 2)
It could mean; (1 – 3x) = 4(+ 2)
or
(1 – 3x) = 4(-2)
In the first option (1 – 3x) = 4(+ 2)
1 – 3x = 4(+ 2)
1-3x= 8
-3x=8-1
-3x=7
x= -7/3
In the second option
(1 – 3x) = 4(-2)
1-3x= -8
-3x= -8-1
-3x = -9
x= 3
x= 3 0r -7/3
The values of x that make the statement true are 3 and -7/3
Micah's solution of x=0 is wrong
Answer:
A. Micah’s solution is wrong. There are no values of x that make the statement true.

2) 800 = 0.3w
Divide both sides by 0.3 to get the variable alone
3) (800)/0.3 = (0.3w)/0.3
4) w = 2,666.67 L
Is 5.7c-1.5+3.2c=7.8c-1.5+1.1c a one solution problem?
Answer:
This is NOT a one solution problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
Group all terms with a c in it to the left of the equal sign, and group all numbers to the right of the equal sign.
5.7c-1.5+3.2c=7.8c-1.5+1.1c
5.7c + 3.2c - 7.8c - 1.1c = - 1.5 + 1.5
8.9c - 8.9c = 0
0 = 0
No matter which number you substitute for c, it will always be true. Since you can find infinity of solutions, this is NOT a one solution problem.

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point J to point K. Point J is at (negative 6, negative 2) and point K is at point (8, negative 9). What is the x-coordinate of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 2:5? x = (StartFraction m Over m + n EndFraction) (x 2 minus x 1) + x 1 –4 –2 2 4
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinate of a point that divides a line AB in a ratio a:b from A([tex]x_1,y_1[/tex]) to B([tex]x_2,y_2[/tex]) is given by the formula:
[tex](x,y)=(\frac{bx_1+ax_2}{a+b} ,\frac{by_1+ay_2}{a+b} )=(\frac{a}{a+b}(x_2-x_1)+x_1 ,\frac{a}{a+b}(y_2-y_1)+y_1 )[/tex]
Given that a line JK, with Point J is at ( -6, - 2) and point K is at point (8, - 9) into a ratio of 2:5. The x coordinate is given as:
[tex]x=\frac{2}{2+5} (8-(-6))+(-6)=\frac{2}{7}(14) -6=4-6=-2[/tex]
Line segments can be divided into equal or unequal ratios
The x coordinate of the segment is -2
The coordinates of points J and K are given as:
[tex]J = (-6,-2)[/tex]
[tex]K = (8,-9)[/tex]
The ratio is given as:
[tex]m : n =2 : 5[/tex]
The x-coordinate is then calculated using:
[tex]x = (\frac{m}{m + n }) (x_2 - x_1) + x_1[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]x = (\frac{2}{2 + 5 }) (8 - -6) -6[/tex]
[tex]x = (\frac{2}{7}) (14) -6[/tex]
Expand
[tex]x = (2) (2) -6[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]x = 4 -6[/tex]
Subtract 6 from 4
[tex]x = -2[/tex]
Hence, the x coordinate of the segment is -2

Determine the equation of a line that passes through A(2,5) and is parallel to the line defined by 3x−y+12=0. State the equation in slope y-intercept form
Answer:
y = 3x - 1
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 )
Given
3x - y + 12 = 0 ( subtract 3x + 12 from both sides )
- y = - 3x - 12 ( multiply through by - 1 )
y = 3x + 12 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 3
Parallel lines have equal slopes , thus
y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (2, 5) into the partial equation
5 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 6 = - 1
y = 3x - 1 ← equation of parallel line
Choose the equation that is equivalent to the equation shown below. y = 2x + 4a/6b A. x = 2x - 3by B. c = ax-by/z C. b = 6y/2x+4a D. a = 3by-x/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x + 4a/6b y=(12xb+4b )/6b
6yb=12x+4a
a=(-12xb+6yb)/4=
a=3yb/2 -3xb
x=y/2-a/3b
b=2a/(3y-6x)
the solution is for every variable
In 1833 a ship arrived inCalcutta with 120 tons remaining of its cargo of ice. One third of the original cargo was lost because it had melted on the voyage. How many tons of ice was the ship carrying when it set sail? A.40 B.80 C.120 D.150 E.180
Answer: 180
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the tons of ice the ship was carrying when it set sail be y.
We are told that one third of the original cargo was lost because it had melted on the voyage and that it arrived in Calcutta with 120 tons remaining of its cargo of ice.
This means that (1 - 1/3 = 2/3) remained which was the 120 tons remaining. This implies that:
2/3 × y = 120
2y/3 = 120
2y = 120 × 3
2y = 360
y = 360/2
y = 180
The ship was carrying 180 tons of ice when it set sail

What is the point- slope of a line with slope -5 that contains the point (2,1) ? ( TOP ANSWER GETS BRAINLEST)
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = - 5 and (a, b) = (2, - 1), thus
y - (- 1) = - 5(x - 2) , that is
y + 1 = - 5(x - 2) → C
Answer:
y + 1 = - 5(x - 2)Option C is the correct option
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of point slope form of line is :
[tex]y - y1 =m ( x - x1)[/tex]
Where ( x1 , y1 ) is one point on the line and m is the slope.
In the given problem,
The slope of line ( m ) = - 5
One point on the line = ( x1 , y1 ) = ( 2 , -1 )
The point slope form of the line is:
y - ( - 1 ) = - 5 ( x - 2 )
y + 1 = - 5 ( x - 2 )

which system of linear inequalities is represented by this graphed solution?
A. y > -1/2x + 2
y ≤ 3x - 1
B. y < -1/2x + 2
y ≥ 3x - 1
C. y > -2x + 2
y ≤ 1/3x - 1
D. y ≤ -1/2x + 2
y < 3x - 1
Answer:
B. y < -1/2x + 2 y ≥ 3x - 1Step-by-step explanation:
The gray shadowed area is below descending function and the line is dashed.
It means coefficient x is m<0 and the sign of inequality is y <
So the inequality wich fit it is y < -1/2x + 2
The blue shadowed area is above ascending function and the line is uninterrupted.
It means coefficient x is m>0 and the sign of inequality is y ≥
So the second inequality of system (y ≥ 3x - 1) also match.
The system of linear inequalities represented by this graphed solutions are y ≤ -1/2x + 2 and y < 3x - 1
The standard equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b;
m is the slope of the lineb is the y-intercept of the lineFor the blue line, the y-intercept is at y = -1. For the slope passing through (0, -1) and (2, 5):
m = 5+1/2-0
m= 6/2
m = 3
The equation of the line is y = 3x - 1
Since the line is dashed and the left part shaded, the inequality expression will be y < 3x - 1
For the black line, the y-intercept is at y = 2. For the slope passing through (0, 2) and (4, 0):
m = 0-2/4-0
m= -2/4
m = -1/2
The equation of the line is y = -1/2x + 2
Since the line is solid and the lower part shaded, the inequality expression will be y ≤ -1/2x + 2
Hence the system of linear inequalities represented by this graphed solutions are y ≤ -1/2x + 2 and y < 3x - 1

What is quadratic equation?A quadratic equation is an algebraic equation of the second degree in x. The quadratic equation in its standard form is[tex]ax^{2} +bx+c=0[/tex], where a and b are the coefficients, x is the variable, and c is the constant term.
What is the sum and product of the roots of the quadratic equation?If [tex]ax^{2} +bx+c = 0[/tex] be the quadratic equation then

And,
Product of the roots = [tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex]
According to the given question.
We have a quadratic equation [tex]3x^{2} +5x+7=0..(i)[/tex]
On comparing the above quadratic equation with standard equation or general equation [tex]ax^{2} +bx+c = 0[/tex].
We get
[tex]a = 3\\b = 5\\and\\c = 7[/tex]
Also, u and v are the solutions of the quadratic equation.
⇒ u and v are the roots of the given quadratic equation.
Since, we know that the sum of the roots of the quadratic equation is [tex]-\frac{b}{a}[/tex].
And product of the roots of the quadratic equation is [tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex].
Therefore,
[tex]u +v = \frac{-5}{3}[/tex] ...(ii) (sum of the roots)
[tex]uv=\frac{7}{3}[/tex] ....(iii) (product of the roots)
Now,
[tex]\frac{u}{v} +\frac{v}{u} = \frac{u^{2} +v^{2} }{uv} = \frac{(u+v)^{2}-2uv }{uv}[/tex] ([tex](a+b)^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2} +2ab[/tex])
Therefore,
[tex]\frac{u}{v} +\frac{v}{u} =\frac{(\frac{-5}{3} )^{2}-2(\frac{7}{3} ) }{\frac{7}{3} }[/tex] (from (i) and (ii))
⇒ [tex]\frac{u}{v} +\frac{v}{u} =\frac{\frac{25}{9}-\frac{14}{3} }{\frac{7}{3} }[/tex]

Campus rentals rent 2 and 3 bedroom apartments for 700$ and 900$ a month respectively. Last month they had six vacant apartments and reported $4600 in lost rent. How many of each type of apartment were vacant?
Answer:
2 - bedroom apartment = 4
3 - bedroom apartment = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
2 - bedroom apartment = $700 / month
3 - bedroom apartment = $900 / month
Last month:
Number of vacant apartment = 6
Amount of Lost rent = $4600
Let a = 2 - bedroom apartment and b = 3 - bedroom apartment
Vacant apartment :
a + b = 6 - - - (1)
Lost rent :
700a + 900b = 4600 - - - (2)
From (1),, a = 6 - b
Substitute a = 6 - b into (2)
700(6 - b) + 900b = 4600
4200 - 700b + 900b = 4600
4200 + 200b = 4600
200b = 4600 - 4200
200b = 400
b = 400/200
b = 2
From (1) ;
a + b = 6
a + 2 = 6
a = 6 - 2
a = 4
a = 2 - bedroom apartment = 4
b = 3 - bedroom apartment = 2

Now that you know about ratios and all that, this is pretty tame compared to the last problem.
Now, the problem is talking 2D(2 Dimensions)
The ratio is not going to work because it has only one parameter.
Thus, we need to square it!
[tex](\frac{1}{20})^{2} =\frac{1}{400}[/tex]
Thus, we have your correct ratio.
Now, we only need to do the same thing for the triangle problem. Meaning that, we need to compare the ratios, with x as the thing we are looking for.

[tex]y-y_1+mx_1=mx[/tex]
[tex]\frac{y-y_1-mx_1}{m}=\frac{mx}{m}[/tex] [Divide the equation by m]
[tex]\frac{y-y_1}{m}-x_1=x[/tex]
Therefore, Option (C) will be the answer.
