Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first choice is the correct one, as is easily verified by putting it in the equation and evaluating:

... 6(-8-1) = 9(-8+2)

... -54 = -54

_____

You can solve the equation to get the same result.

... 6x -6 = 9x +18

... -24 = 3x . . . . . add -18-6x

... -8 = x . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Answer to this math question

gladu [14]

Answer:

$4\frac{2}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a recurring decimal.

Let x = 4.666666... ⇒ (1)

10x = 46.66666... ⇒ (2)

Subtract equation (1) from equation (2)

10x = 46.66666..

- x = 4.666666...

9x = 42.0000.....

9x = 42

x = 42/9

= 14/3

= $4\frac{2}{3}$

Molly's hair was 20 inches long. Three years later it was 53 inches long. What was the percent increase, to the nearest hundredt

Georgia [21]

Find how much it grew:

53 - 20 = 33 inches.

Divide the amount it grew by the original length

33/20 = 1.65

Subtract 1:

1.65 - 1 = 0.65

Multiply by 100 for percent:

0.65 x 100 = 65%

The percent increase is 65%
