Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3 - 6x = -9
I see a lot of negative numbers, which can make an equation more difficult to solve. Let's make these numbers positive.
Add 6x to both sides.
3 = -9 + 6x
Add 9 to both sides.
12 = 6x
Now we want to isolate x by dividing both sides by 6.
2 = x
This is your answer.
Let's check it by plugging x = 2 back into the original equation.
3 - 6x = -9
3 - 6(2) = -9
3 - 12 = -9
-9 = -9
Your answer is correct.
Hope this helps!
Any number plus seven will always be greater than three, so just about any number would be your best bet !
To solve this problem you need to do a proportion. First you do 15 over x= 75 over 100. Now you multiply 15 by 100 which is 1500. Next, you divide 1500 by 75. YOUR ANSWER IS 20 peaches. To check your work, you could divide 20 by 4 which is 5. 5 times 3= 15 peaches.
