4a-9b=22

substitute b=-2

4a -9(-2) = 22

4a +18 =22

subtract 18 from each side

4a = 4

divide by 4

a =1

Answer:

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4a+18=22

Step 2: Subtract 18 from both sides.

4a+18−18=22−18

4a=4

Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.

4a /4 = 4 /4

a=1

Each time Kristine gets paid, she spends $20 and saves the rest. If the amount Kristine earns is represented by x and the amount

faust18 [17]

We are given that Kristine spends $20 and saves the rest each time she get paid.

We can use slope-intercept form y=mx+b to represent the equation.

Where x represents the amount Kristine earns and y represents the amount she saves.

Kristine spends $20. Therefore b= -20.

Plugging mx as just x and b=-20.

<h3>y = x-20.</h3><h3>If we plug y=0, we get </h3><h3>0 = x-20</h3><h3>x=20.</h3><h3>We can see in 4th option we have x-intercept =20.</h3><h3>Therefore, correct option is 4th option. </h3><h3 />
