Answer: x = -45

Step-by-step explanation:

-9(x-5) = -10x

Use distributive property and multiply-9 thru the first parentheses set

-9x + 45 = -10x

45 becomes positive by multiplying two negative numbers together

Add 10x to both sides to isolate the x variable

-9x + 10x = x

Subtract 45 from both sides to move the number from left to right side of =

X = -45

Janet is painting her shed. She buys some gallon-sized paint cans that cost $15 each and 2 quart-sized paint cans that cost $4 e
blondinia [14]

1 gallon cost $15

1 quarts cost $4

1 quarts = 1/4 gallon

15x for number of gallon cans

2 cans at $4 each = $8

15x + 8 = 53

Subtract 8 from both sides:

15x = 53-8

15x = 45

Divide both sides by 15:

x = 45/15

x = 3

She bought 3 gallon cans of paint

Plus she bought 2 quart cans, which is equal to a half gallon.

She bought a total of 3.5 gallons of paint.

The quantities x and y are proportional. Find the constant of proportionality r in the equation y = rx
ELEN [110]

Answer:

r = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can plug in a pair of x and y values and solve for r.

y = rx | Plug in a pair

42 = r*6 | Now divide both sides by 6

7 = r.

We can test this by plugging in r with a pair.

y = (7)x

77 = 7*11, 77 = 77, This equation is correct.
