Answer:

$x=-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

$9-4(2x-1)=45$

First, we expand the equation using the distributive rule:

$x(y-z)=xy-xz$

Hence, $9-4*2x-4*-1=45$

Simplify: $9-8x+4=45$

Add like terms:

$13-8x=45$

Subtract 13 from both sides: $-8x=32$

Divide both sides by -8:

$x=-4$

You would -a to get 6x=5-a then divide by 6 which you would get your final answer which is x=5-a/6

Elena is paid a constant rate for each hour she works. The table shows the amounts of money that Elena earned for various amount

Nikolay [14]

Constant rates are used to illustrate linear functions.

The average rate of change is $9.0 per hour
The function that models the table is: $\mathbf{f(x) = 9x }$
The amount earned in 7.5 hours is $67.5

<u>(a) The average rate of change</u>

This is calculated using:

$\mathbf{Rate = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}}$

So, we have:

$\mathbf{Rate = \frac{31.5-22.50}{3.5 - 2.5}}$

$\mathbf{Rate = \frac{9}{1.0}}$

$\mathbf{Rate = 9.0}$

Hence, the average rate of change is $9.0 per hour

<u>(b) A function that models the table of values</u>

Let x represent hours, and y represent the earnings.

So, we have:

$\mathbf{y =m (x - x_1) + y_1}$

Where:

m =Rate = 9.0

So, we have:

$\mathbf{y = 9(x - 2.5) + 22.5}$

Expand

$\mathbf{y = 9x - 22.5 + 22.5}$

$\mathbf{y = 9x }$

Represent as a function

$\mathbf{f(x) = 9x }$

Hence, the function that models the table is: $\mathbf{f(x) = 9x }$

<u>(c) Amount earned for 7.5 hours</u>

This means that x = 7.5

So, we have:

$\mathbf{f(7.5) = 9 \times 7.5 }$

$\mathbf{f(7.5) = 67.5}$

Hence, the amount earned in 7.5 hours is $67.5

The second statement is:

B: a + b = b + a

Which is the commutative property, so we know that this statement is true.

<h3>Which statement is always true?</h3>

Remember that for integer numbers, we have the following properties:

Commutative property: A + B = B + A
Associative property: (A + B) + C = A + (B + C)

Now, in this case we know that a and b are integer numbers, first we can see that the second statement is:

B: a + b = b + a

Which is the commutative property, so we know that this statement is true.

The other 3 statements are false. You can see it by evaluating a = 0 and b = 1.
