Answer:
y=1/3x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
let me know if not clear
Answer:
x = 71/5 (as an improper fraction)
x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction
x = 14.2 (as a decimal)
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a rectangle so the diagonals are equal
7x - 9 = 2x + 62
Subtract 2x from both sides
5x - 9 = 62
Add 9 to both sides
5x = 71
Divide both sides by 5
x = 71/5 (as an improper fraction)
x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction
x = 14.2 (as a decimal)
You have the right idea and you are close to the correct answer. However that's not what your teacher is looking for in terms of steps.
The starting inequality is

She starts off selling 8 buckets. Then she sells b more to get a total of b+8
This total must be 20 or larger which is why I set b+8 greater than or equal to 20
Solve for b by subtracting 8 from both sides



So she needs to sell at least 12 more buckets to reach her goal
If you graphed this on a number line, then you would draw a closed circle at 12. Then shade to the right of the close circle.
i think its b correct me if im wrong
I think it's consistent and independent because consistent means it has at least one solution (which it does) and independent means that it has exactly one solution. (i wasnt familiar with these terms so i googled what they meant, i apologise in advance if i am wrong)
