Answer:
x = -9/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Divide 9 by -1/3:
÷ 
= · 
= -27
2. Divide both sides by 2:
2(x - 9) = -27
(x - 9) = 
3. Add 9 to both sides:
x = 
(or 4.5 if you need it in decimal form)

Answer: f(x) = (-1/2)x+1, choice B</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
The diagonal line passes through 1 on the vertical y axis. So the y intercept is b = 1. This means the location of the y intercept is (0,1).
Start at (0,1) and move down 1 and to the right 2 to arrive at (2,0). This is another point on the diagonal line. The motion of "down 1 and right 2" is effectively the slope
slope = rise/run = -1/2
rise = -1, run = 2
The rise being negative means we have gone downhill as we move to the right.
With m = -1/2 as the slope and b = 1 as the y intercept, we go from y = mx+b to y = (-1/2)x+1
The last thing to do is replace y with f(x) to get f(x) = (-1/2)x+1 as the final answer.
The surface area of the balloon is 249 in².
<h3>What is the surface area of the balloon ?</h3>
A balloon has the shape of a sphere. The distance round the sphere is equal to the circumference of the sphere.
Circumference of the sphere = 2πr
Where:
- r = radius
- π = pi = 22 / 7
Radius - circumference / 2π
28 / ( 2 x 22/7) = 4.45 inches
Surface area of a sphere = 4πr²
4 x 22/7 x 4.45² = 249 in²
