First solve for w and then graph.
-5w + 9 = 14
Now add negative 9 to both sides of the equation
-5w + 9 - 9 = 14 - 9
-5w = 5
Now divide - five from both sides
-5w / -5 = 5 / -5
w = -1
Now it is time to plot the w, which is -1, on a number line. See image that is attached for plot

Alex has a bag of marbles. Each marble is red, blue, or yellow , and the ratio of the red to blue to yellow marbles is 6:10:15.

Answer:

There are 150 blue marbles in Alex's bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ , $y$ , $z$ be the quantities of red, blue and yellow marbles, respectively. From statement we derive three rational equations for initial and final ratios:

Initial ratio

$\frac{x}{y} = \frac{6}{10}$ (1)

$\frac{y}{z} = \frac{10}{15}$ (2)

Final ratio

$\frac{x + 10}{z - 25} = \frac{1}{2}$ (3)

After some algebraic handling we get the following system of linear equations:

$x - \frac{3}{5}\cdot y = 0$ (1)

$y - \frac{2}{3}\cdot z = 0$ (2)

$2\cdot (x + 10) = z - 25$

$2\cdot x +20 = z - 25$

$2\cdot x - z = -45$ (3)

The solution of the system of linear equations is:

$x = 90$ , $y = 150$ , $z = 225$

Help with these please! Write the equation in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) of each graph.

olga_2 [115]

Y=-1/2+2

The y intercept is clearly 2 and you're going down 2 over two every time so your slope is -1/2.
