The gial is to isolate the variable taht is the first thing to remember, second whatever you do to one side you must do to the other. yiu can approach this.in two ways as I see it with 1b or alk fractions. I prefer fractions so first you want yo get rid of the 9/4 on the variabke side so 9/4-9/4 is zero and 7/4-9/4=(-2/4) then you have 1/2b=(-2/4) or (-1/2) so you multipke both sides by two and get b=(-1) hope that helped

18. The sum of 3 integers is 137. The 2nd number is 4 more than two times the 1st
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The second number is four more than, two times the first number. The third ... Start by writing an expression for each of the three numbers. They are all formed from the first number, so let's call the first number x . Let the first number be x. The second number is 2x+4. The third number is 3x−5. We are told .

Maria has c boxes of 10 pencils. The teacher gives her another 20 pencils. How many pencils does she have altogether?
o-na [289]
The equation to your question would be P =10(c)+20. meaning 10 pencils in each box multiplied by the number of boxes (c) plus the 20 pencils the teacher gives her will equal the number of pencils (P) she has altogether. (C stands for the number of boxes and P stands for pencils)

    so lets say she has 3 boxes. well, c stands for boxes soooo...... all you have to do is plug in 3 were c is. giving you this equation P = 10(3)+20. then all you have to do is solve.  P = 10(3)+20
         10 times 3 = 30 so      P = 30+20
then add 30 and 20             P = 50           she has 50 pencils altogether 

      (remember this is just an example, 50 pencils is NOT the answer to your question. but you can use the equation i gave you to find your own answer!) :) Hope this helps!!

98 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST FOR BEST ANSWER!!!!
Phoenix [80]

A) We are told that at 2 hours, the velocity is 18 km/h and at 4 hours, the velocity is 4 km/h. Since we are relating two variables - let's give them names.

Let x = time and y = velocity. Since the velocity depends on the time (that is, the time influences velocity), this is a linear function. Any linear function can be written in slope intercept form as y = mx + b. The problem wants the situation in standard from of Ax + By = C, which can be found from slope intercept form.

So now we can make our line. Consider the ordered pairs of (2,18) and (4, 4) with them in (x, y) form. Finding the slope, m, between these points is as such:

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

m = 4 - 18 / 4 - 2

m = -14 / 2 = -7.

Our slope is -7.

We take m = -7, x = 4, and y = 4 (it goes 4 km/h in 4 hrs) and use those three things to find the y-intercept.

y = mx + b

4 = -7 * 4 + b

4 = -28 + b

32 = b

So our equation of the line is y = -7x + 32. To put the equation into standard form, we need to place all the variables on one side of the equals sign, all the numbers on the other.

y = -7x + 32

7x + y = 32

In standard form, the equation for this situation is 7x + y = 32

***

To find out the velocity at 8 hours, we evaluate our function at x = 8. Either equation (standard form or slope intercept) works; we use standard form.

7x + y = 32

7*8 + y = 32

56 + y = 32

y = -24

At a time of eight hours, the bicycle is moving at -24 km/h.

John is arguing that they should use the following expressions to calculate the final cost of this item: (20-20•0.15)+(20-20•0.1
Vikki [24]
If they use (20-20x0.15)+(20-20x.015)x0.05 the final cost would be $34.05

Hope this helps
