Answer:

There are 8 friends and the presents costs $30,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of students and y be the price of the present. Their contributions can be expressed as:

3000x=y-6000\ \ \ \  \ \ ...i\\\\4000x=y+2000\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \...ii

#Make y the subject in equation i then substitute in ii:

y=3000x+6000\\\\\#substitute \ in \ ii\\\\4000x=y+2000\\\\4000x=(3000x+6000)+2000\\\\1000x=8000\\\\x=8\\\\y=3000\times 8+6000\\\\y=30000

Hence, there are 8 friends and the present is priced at $30,000

Write an equation of the line that passes through (0 0) and (2 6)
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

y = 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope equation:

y2 - y1

--------

x2 - x1

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         6 - 0          6

m = ----------- =   ----- = 3

         2 - 0           2

Your slope is 3.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Equation:

y = mx + b

Plug in the slope and you get:

y = 3x + b

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now to find b, you can use either coordinate point. So I will show you both ways :)

<u>(0,0)</u>                                                                     <u>(2,6)</u>

0 = 3(0) + b                                                     6 = 3(2) + b

Multiply 0 and 3                                           Multiply 2 and 3

0 = 0 + b                                                         6 = 6 + b

Subtract 0 to 0                                            Subtract 6 from 6

0 = b                                                                    0 = b

There is no y-intercept

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your answer: y = 3x

Hope this helped :)

What is the value of the x in this equation 6x = 54​
seraphim [82]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

6x = 54​

Simple way of solving, all you have to do is isolate the variable "x." To do that, divide the number, 6, by both sides.

6x / 6 = 54 / 6

54 / 6 = 9

Hence,

x = 9

Hope this helps :)
