The first step I would take is
.. Multiply both sides of the equation by 1/4.
_____
You could start by adding 16 to both sides of the equation, to make the left side the square (2x +4)^2.
Answer:
4+x=-3+2x
4+3=2x-x
7=x
9x=9*7
=63
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y=8x-69
Step-by-step explanation:
you would use the equation y-y1 = m (x - x1)
plug in m = 8 , y1 = 3, x1 = 9
now you have y - 3 = 8 (x-9)
distribute 8 --> y-3 = 8x - 72
add three to both sides to get y = 8x - 69
Let's convert one of these numbers:
1 foot = 12 inches
9 feet were 9*12=108 inches
so the ratio would be 42: 108
or we can simplify it: divide by 2:
21:54
divide by 3:
7:18
A ratio always stays the same no matter the unit or currency, so it doesn't matter which unit we convert it to.
