Answer: (3)12 + 6x = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

We know he definitely bought 3 books for $12 each so we immediately put that in the equation. Then we add that to the unknown (6 books times however much he bought them for) and then we equal it to 84 (his budget). Now we do 3 x 12 which is 36. Our new equation is 36 + 6x = 84. 84 - 36 = 48 so we know 6x = 48. Now divide 48 by 6 to get rid of the 6 and we learn that the variable equals 8. So, x = 8. We now know that he bought 6 books at 8 dollars each.

Thomas reads 2/9 of a book on Monday and 1/6 of it on Tuesday. He reads twice as many pages on Wednesday as on Tuesday. What fra
dezoksy [38]
1/18 is left. Thomas has 1/18 left of his book. How? What denominator can 9&6 relate to? 54? Sure, but it could be lower. How about 18? Ok. We have 18 because 9x2 and 6x3 both equal 18... 2/9 becomes 4/18 because 18 divided by 9 is 2. You multiply 2 with the two from 2/9. 1/6 becomes 3/18 because 18 divided by 6 is 3. You then multiply 3 with the one from 1/6. Put it together and TA-DA... Your answer is 1/18

Brian needs to find the value of a number, a, so that when (x^2+3x) is added to the binomial (3x^2+ax), the sum simplifies to 4x
Julli [10]

Answer:

a = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to add  (x^2+3x)  to (3x^2+ax),

(x^2+3x)+(3x^2+ax)

Expand

= x^2+3x+3x^2+ax

Collect the like terms

= x^2+3x^2+3x+ax

= 4x^2 + 3x + ax

= 4x^2+(3+a)x

Equate the solution to 4x^2+12x

4x^2+(3+a)x = 4x^2+12x

Comparing the like terms on both sides

(3+a)x =12x

3 + a = 12

a = 12 - 3

a = 9

Hence the value of a is 9

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point ( 6 , − 1 ) (6,−1) and is parallel to the line x − 3 y = 3 x−3y=3?
Nataly [62]

Answer:

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Passes through (6,-1)(6,-1)

Find the slope (m)

m=(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m=(-1 - (-1) ) / (6-6)

m= 0

Parallel to x - 3y = 3

-3y = -x +3

y = 1/3 x -1

Equation of the line equation is y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )

y - ( -1 ) = 0 ( x - 6 )

y + 1 = 0

y = 1
