4x - 15 = 9
4x = 9 + 15
4x = 24
x = 24/4
x = 6

hope this helps you

Translating it into math figures:
4*?-15=9
lets say the question mark is x:
4*x-15=9
4x-15=9
adding 15 from both sides:
4x=24
now divide both sides by 4:
x=6
just to make sure it's correct, put it in the original equation
4*6-15=9
24-15=9

Jordan would like to buy an oil painting with an original price of $744.00. Which coupon should he use 55% off or $400.00

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

The 400 coupon is 80 cents better

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the sale price with the coupon

744 - 400 = 344

Now find the sale price with the discount

100-55 = 45

We will pay 45% of the original price

744*45%

744*.45

344.80

At a speed of 22 revolutions per minute, how long will it take a wheel of radius 10,

Bogdan [553]

Well, if the radius is 10, then the circumference is $\frac{2*10*22}7=\frac{440}7$
What's the unit? Either way, 22 rev. per minute means each minute you go by $22*\frac{440}7=\frac{9680}7$ units per second. Now you got the linear speed, just find out the time by dividing the distance by the speed!
So, what's the unit for the radius?

The equation of a line with slope m= - 1/4 and including point (-3, 5) is y= - 1/4 x - 4.

raketka [301]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = - $\frac{1}{4}$ , hence

y = - $\frac{1}{4}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 3, 5) into the partial equation

5 = $\frac{3}{4}$ + c ⇒ c = $\frac{17}{4}$

y = - $\frac{1}{4}$ x + $\frac{17}{4}$ ← equation of line

State which of the following sets of order pairs represent a function

Tamiku [17]

Remark

The quick answer is C does not represent a function. It has two y values for x = 2. These two points are (2,1) and (2,3). That eliminates C. No x can have 2 y values and be called a function. A function can have many x vales for a single y and still be a function.

A has all different x values, so it could be classed as a function. There are no values where x has more than 1 y value.

B also has all different x values. It too is a function.

Answer

A and B are both functions. C is not.
