add the like terms that are on the left, then isolate the variable (a) on the left by dividing both sides by .

2a + 6a = -24

    8a    = -24             <em>added like terms (2a + 6a)</em>

  8a/8  =  -24/8         <em>divided both sides by 8</em>

      a    = -3                <em>simplified (8/8 = 1   and   -24/8 = -3)</em>

Answer: -3

Which equation is in slope intercept form and represents a line with the slope three through the point (9,-4)
beks73 [17]

Answer:

y = 3x - 31

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

here m = 3, thus

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (9, - 4) into the partial equation

- 4 = 27 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 27 = - 31

y = 3x - 31 ← equation in slope- intercept form

Solve for x in the following equation <br> 2^(8x-8)=4^7x
katrin [286]

Answer:

-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2^(8x-8)=4^7x

2^8x-8=4^7x

2^8x-8=4^2×7x

8x-8=2×7x

8x-8=14x

-8=14x-8x

-8=6x

-8/6=x

-4/3=x

x=-4/3

Gabriel saves 40% of his monthly paycheck for college. He earned $270 last month. How much money did Gabriel save
Sati [7]
The best thing to do is to find 10%, and you can do this by dividing $270 by 10, and therefore, $27 is equal to 10%. To find 40%, you've got to multiply $27 by 4, and this gives you $108. Therefore, gabriel saved $108 last month :)
