Can you rephrase it? (maybe write it out in numbers?)

Let the number be n

the first half (2 less than 3 lots of a number) is in brackets.
3 lots of a number is 3 x the number and 2 less than it is subtracting 2 from the product.
So 3n-2.
That whole number is doubled so the 2 is left outside the brackets so that it applies to everything inside.
2(3n-2) = 5

im not sure if you were asked to find the number but if you are then you must work in opposite operations.

First, divide both sides by 2--
3n-2 = 2.5
then add the 2 to both sides
3n = 4.5
divide both by 3 and tha'ts the answer for n but its a decimal so i doubt its asking for that

One movie-related statistical question would be the length of people's favorite movies (in minutes). This would contain variability since people would have different favorite movies, which would have different lengths.
One movie-related question that does not yield variability is the number of movies released in 2018 that grossed more than $100 million. This would be a fixed fact, so there is no variability about this.

Y=3/4 x-4
pochemuha

Answer:

see graph of y=3/4 x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you mean

y = \frac34x - 4

Below is a graph of that one. The slope is 3/4 and the interception with the y axis is at y=-4. The equation is in its normal form y=ax+b with a=3/4 (slope) and b=-4 (y intercept), so no conversion needed.

You have to be careful on how you write these equations down. It might very well be that you meant:

y = \frac{3}{4x-4} or y = \frac{3}{4x} - 4

However, those are more complex so I'm hoping for the first one... ;-)

What are the solutions to m^2 – 9 = 0? a. m = –9 and m = 0 b. m = –3 and m = 3 c. m = –3 d. m = 9
marysya [2.9K]
2 ways
zero product property
easy way

zero product
factor perfect square
m^2-3^2=0
(m-3)(m+3)=0
set each to zero
m-3=0
x=3

m+3=0
m=-3

m=-3 or 3

easy way
add 9 to both sides
m^2=9
sqrt both sides remember to take postive and negative roots
m=+/-3
m=-3 or 3
