Answer: a=7

<u>Reorder the terms</u>

<u></u>-15 + 3a = 6<u></u>

<u></u>

Solving for variable 'a'.

<u> </u>

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

<u>Add '15' to each side of the equation.</u>

<u></u>-15 + 15 + 3a = 6 + 15<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0 </u>

<u></u>0 + 3a = 6 + 15\\3a = 6 + 15<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Combine like terms: 6 + 15 = 21 </u>

<u></u>3a = 21<u></u>

<u></u>

<u>Divide each side by '3'. </u>

<u></u>a = 7<u></u>

Suppose y varies directly with x. Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Then find the value of y when x=12
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one variable would cause a corresponding increase in the other variable.

Given that y varies directly with x, if we introduce a constant of proportionality, k, the expression becomes

y = kx

If y = 8 when x = 3, then

8 = 3k

k = 3/8

Therefore, the direct variation equation that relates x and y is

y = 3x/8

When x = 12, then

y = 3 × 12/8

y = 4.5

Given the equation of the line y=−x−2, What is the equation of the image after a 270° rotation about the origin. Is there a rela
Vikentia [17]
The equation is y = x + 2 and they are perpendicular lines.

A rotation of 270 degrees means that you turn 3/4 of the way around a circle. That would put the y-intercept at (0, 2) and the line would be going up instead of down.

Micheal buys a new jacket for 90 dollars. Sales tax is 8%. How much does Micheal actually have to pay?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

$97.20

Step-by-step explanation:

you make the 8% into a decimal by moving the decimal to places to the left.

8%=0.08, Then you multiply that by the whole number of 90 dollars.

0.08 x 90 = $97.20

Solve the variable<br>v + 5 &gt; 9 ​
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

v > 4 is simplified expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

v + 5 > 9 ​

This expression says that when 5 is added to a variable v it will be greater than 9 So we will simplify it to get the value for variable v:

Subtracting 5 from both sides:

v + 5 - 5 > 9 ​- 5

v > 4

This is the simplified expression for given question.

i hope it will help you!
