Point (a,a) lies on the graph of the equation 3y = 2x -4 find the value of a

1 answer:

5 0

Substituting (x, y) with (a, a), since we have:

3a=2a-4, which means that 3a-2a=-4, that is a=-4.

So, the point is (-4, -4).

Remark: a point which lies in the graph of an equation is a solution of that equation. So x=a, y=a satisfies the equation 3y = 2x -4, which makes our substitution legitimate.

Answer: (-4, -4).

Help please. Apply the distributive property and simplify, if possible. 0.08 (x +6,000)

WARRIOR [948]

By applying the distributive property:
0.08(x+6,000) ---> (0.08)x+(0.08)6,000

By simplifying:
(0.08)x+(0.08)6,000 ---> 0.08x+480

Your answer is 0.08x+480.

Three consecutive odd integers are such that the sum of the first and second is 31 less than 3 times the third. Find the integer

Otrada [13]

1st:x

2nd x+2

3rd: x+4

(x)+(x+2) = 3(x+4)-31

distribute

2x+2 = 3x+12-31

2x+2 =3x-19

subtract 2x from each side

2 = x-19

add 19 to each side

21 =x
