Answer:

When solving for x, answer = $\large\boxed{x = 5a - 8}$

When solving for a, answer = $\large\boxed{a = 1/5x + 8/5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

24 + 5x = -x + 6(5a - 4)

Start by multiplying 6 by the values in the parenthesis

24 + 5x = -x + 30a - 24

Add 24 to both sides of the equation

48 + 5x = -x + 30a

Add 1x to both sides of the equation

48 + 6x = 30a

Subtract 48 from both sides of the equation

6x = 30a - 48

Divide both sides of the equation by 6

x = 5a - 8 (Answer when solving for x)

Add 8 to both sides of the equation

x + 8 = 5a

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

a = 1/5x + 8/5 (Answer when solving for a)

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

When solving for x, answer = $\large\boxed{x = 5a - 8}$

When solving for a, answer = $\large\boxed{a = 1/5x + 8/5}$

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

(5/11)(1/10)

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of picking blue = 5/11

Now there are only 10 pencils

probability of picking yellow = 1/10

probability of picking blue, then yellow = (5/11)(1/10) = 1/22

What is 2 and negative three using integers

Darina [25.2K]

If you mean "how to write the sum", the answer is

$2+(-3)$

The result of this sum is $-1$ , because you start from 2 on the number line and take 3 steps to the left (negative integers mean going left, positive integers mean going right)

What point is on the graph of every direct variation equation

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: The point (0,0)
This point is also known as the origin

The reason why is because every direct variation equation is of the form y = k*x
where k is some fixed number

If we plugged in x = 0 it leads to y = k*x = k*0 = 0. So (x,y) = (0,0)

What is the slope and y-intercept of this line?y -6x 2

Lelu [443]

In the slope intercept method, it is very simple to find the y intercept and the slope. The slope is always accompanied with the x so in this problem, the slope is -6 meaning it has a negative correlation (it's pointing down on the graph) the y intercept is the other number on that side of the equals sign. It is 2 and is positive.
