Question

Answer 6-9 for 15 points.

Answer 1

Answer:

6. $x=36$

7. $x=-5$

8. $x=4$

9. $x=60$

Step-by-step explanation:

6. The quotient of a number and -4 is -9

"The quotient of a number and -4" can be translated to $\frac{x}{-4}$

"Is -9" can be translated to $=-9$

This means that the problem can be written as $-\frac{x}{4} =-9$

To solve for x, we need to multiply each side by -4.

$x=36$

7. Twice a number is -10

"Twice a number" can be translated to $2x$

"Is -10" can be translated to $=-10$

This means that our equation is $2x=-10$

To solve for x, we need to divide each side by 2

$x=-5$

8. Three times a number is 12

"Three times a number" can be translated to $3x$

"Is 12" can be translated to $=12$

This means that our equation is $3x=12$

To solve for x, we need to divide each side by 3

$x=4$

9. Cade has a football trading card collection. He decided to share his collection with 5 of his friends. If each friend received 12 cards, how many cards did Cade have to share with his friends?

"Share his collection with 5 of his friends" can be translated to just 5

"If each friend received 12 cards" can be translated to $*12$

"How many cards did Cade have to share with his friends" can be translated to =x

This means that our equation is $5*12=x$

To solve, we just need to multiply the terms.

$x=60$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) a÷4=-9

4×-9=-36

2) -10÷2=-5

3) 12÷3=4

4)5×12=60
