First subtract the x variable on both sides so on the first equation youll have -6y=8x+60 then divide 6 on all variables which means youll have y=8/6x+10 and in the second equation you do the same thing and youll have y=-5/6x-11.5

Divide -8x by -8 which leaves you with x and you have to do it to both sides so divide 60 by -8 which leaves you with -7.5
and continue doing all algebraic equations that way following the two rules:
1) to get rid of a number do its opposite
2)whatever you do to one side do to the other

The mean of this data set is 9. What number is missing? 11,20,_,3,1

kherson [118]

Let the missing number be x

Mean is the total sum of data over the number of data therefore,

(11+20+x+3+1) / 5 = 9
Then simplify
(35 + x) / 5 = 9
Then multiply 5 to both sides
35 + x = 45
Then subtract 35 to both sides to find x
X= 10

Answer:

B. Side a is 7 inches long and side b is 6 inches long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the scale drawing is three times bigger than the actual object, divide both numbers by three to find the object size.

Side a:

21/3 = 7 inches

Side b:

18/3 = 6 inches
