Answer:

17=p+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by setting the equation equal to 17 on either the right or left side. Now, on the opposite side of the equation read out what the question is saying.

"8 more than a number (p)" the variable would be p, and 8 more than p is 17. Now that you have that in mind, write 17 is equal to p plus 8.

17=p+8

If the question asks you to solve this equation for p, subtract 8 from both sides to get 9 for p.

I hope this is easy to understand.

Please help me, I'm doing a test.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

(3,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

first you're going to solve the equation -2x

your equation should now be: $\left \{ {{-2x+3y\\=6} \atop {-2x=2-2y}} \right.$

next you're going to substitute the given value of -2x into the equation $-2x+3y=6$

so your equation should now be: $2-2y+3y=6$

next you're going to solve the equation for y

equation should now be: y=4

than you're going to substitute the given value of y into the equation $-2x=2-2$ × $4$

then you're going to solve the equation for x

your equation should now be: x=3

then the possible solution of the system is the order pair: (x,y)=(3,4)

Which equation is the same as “f of x equals the quantity one-fourth x plus nine all over ten”

Sergio [31]

F(x)=((1/4)x+9)/10 Because f of x = f(x), equals the quantity means =, one-fourth x is just (1/4)x, plus 9 is + 9, and all over ten means take everything previously said over ten.
