Answer:

12 people

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem that involves common ratios. 7 people bought jerseys for every 2 people who bought programs. We need to figure out how many people bought programs if 42 people bought jerseys. If we let the number of people who bought programs be x, we can set up an equation like this:

\frac{2}{7}=\frac{x}{42}

If we cross multiply, we get the following:

7x=84

We can solve for x by dividing by 7, and getting that x = 12. This means that 12 people bought programs.

12 people :)
2/7 = x/42
7x=84
x=12

Solve $16x+9=9y-2x$ for $y$ .
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The solution for y is y = 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets explain how to solve an equation for one of the variables</em>

- We need to solve the equation 16x + 9 = 9y - 2 x for y

- That means we want to find y in terms of x and the numerical term

- the equation has two sides, one side contains x and numerical term

 and the other side contains y and x

- We need to separate y in one side, and other term in the other side

* <em>Lets do that</em>

∵ 16x + 9 = 9y - 2x

- Add 2x to both sides to cancel -2x from the right side

∴ 16x + 2x + 9 = 9y - 2x + 2x

- Add like terms in each side

∴ 18x + 9 = 9y

- Divide each term by the coefficient of y ⇒ (÷9)

∴ (18 ÷ 9)x + (9 ÷ 9) = (9 ÷ 9)y

∴ 2x + 1 = y

- Switch the two sides

∴ y = 2x + 1

* The solution for y is y = 2x + 1

Which is the equation of the line?
sasho [114]
A. -5x + 3y = 15 is your answer. this is because the slope is 5/3 and the y-intercept is 5 so you plot those onto the graph and this shows it.

hope this helps, God bless!
