Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, add 9 to both sides

3/4x - 9 (+9) = 27 (+9)

3/4x = 36

Next, multiply 4/3 to both sides

(4/3)(3/4)x = 36(4/3)

x = 36(4/3)

Simplify.

x = 12(4)

x = 48

48 is your answer for x.

hope this helps

x = 48

To find this, follow these steps:

3/4x - 9 = 27

Add 9 to both sides:

3/4x = 36

Multiply by 4 on both sides:

3x = 144

Then divide by 3 on both sides:

x = 48

Hope this helps!

The perimeter of a rectangle is 36m. If its length is increased by 1m and the width is increased by 2m, its area will increase b
maw [93]

Answer:

  80 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information lets you write two equations involving length (x) and width (y).

  • 2(x +y) = 36 . . . . the perimeter is 36 m
  • (x+1)(y+2) -xy = 30 . . . . increasing the length and width increases area

The second of these equations simplifies to another linear equation, giving a system of linear equations easily solved.

  xy +y +2x + 2 -xy = 30

  2x +y = 28 . . . . . . . subtract 2

Dividing the first equation by 2 gives

  x +y = 18

and subtracting this from the above equation gives ...

  (2x +y) -(x +y) = 28 -18

  x = 10

Then

  y = 18 -10 = 8

The area of the original rectangle is xy = 10·8 = 80 m^2.

I NEED HELP!!!!!In the graph shown, suppose that f(x) = 3.5x and h(x) = 1.5x. Choose the statement that COULD be true.
rusak2 [61]

The given functions are

f(x)=3.5^x

h(x)=1.5^x

Now these are exponential curves and the bases for the functions are 3.5 & 1.5

Also the graph of g(x) is between f(x) & h(x)

Hence the value of base called the scale factor must be between 3.5 & 1.5.

4 & 5 are more than 3.5

0.9 is smaller than 1.5

But π = 3.14 lies between 3.5 & 1.5.

Hence the only option which can represent the graph of g(x) is

g(x)=\pi ^x

Option D) is the right answer
