Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2(a²) =72 Divide both sides by 2

a²= 36

a=6

What's the answer for 3/4 (x+3)=9

Vitek1552 [10]

We want to solve the equation :

$\displaystyle{ \frac{3}{4}(x+3)=9$

first, multiply both sides by 4:

$\displaystyle{ \cancel{4} \cdot \frac{3}{ \cancel 4 }(x+3)=4\cdot 9$

$\displaystyle{ 3(x+3)=36$

divide both sides by 3:

$x+3=12$

add -3 to both sides:

$x=9$

Answer: x=9

M = 2; b=3 using y-intercept how do i solve

mash [69]

The slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have m = 2 and b = 3. Substitute:

$y=2x+3$

1. Chris takes 25 minutes to replace one car tyre.

vekshin1

Chris and Jim must replace a <em>total</em> quantity of 17 tyres.

<h3>What is the minimum number of tyres to be replaced?</h3>

In this problem we must use an inequality of the form f(x) ≥ a, where f(x) is the difference between the number of tyres replaced by Jim and the number of tyres replaced by Chris:

(25/20) · x - x ≥ 3

(5/20) · x ≥ 3

x ≥ 12

Then, the <em>minimum</em> number of tyres to be replaced is n = 15 + 12 = 17 tyres.
