Collect like terms.

8x - 2 + x = 14
9x - 2 = 14
9x = 16

8x+x = 9x (simplifying the x)

9x = 14 - -2
This can be simplified to...
9x = 16

16 / 9 = 1.78
x = 1.78

The answer is 1.78

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

d. about 50 times larger

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expressions for magnitude (M) can be solved for the intensity (I). Then the ratio of intensities is ...

$\dfrac{I_2}{I_1}=\dfrac{I_0\cdot 10^{M_2}}{I_0\cdot 10^{M_1}}=10^{M_2-M_1}=10^{4.2-2.5}\\\\=10^{1.7}\approx 50$

The larger earthquake had about 50 times the intensity of the smaller one.

Tasya [4]

Answer:

p = 55 + 35h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p and h represent the price of the service call and the hours worked, respectively. The price charged is 35 dollars for each hour, so the time-based part of the price is 35h. The base fee of 55 dollars is added to that for a total price of ...

p = 55 + 35h

Explain why each table determine if y is proportional to x .

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If y is proportional to x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k divide both sides by x

k = $\frac{y}{x}$

This value must be constant for all ordered pairs, thus

k = $\frac{4}{6}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$

k = $\frac{6}{9}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$

k = $\frac{8}{12}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$

k = $\frac{2}{3}$

Since k is constant for all ordered pairs then y is proportional to x
