Yes.
They both will end with the equation
.. y = -2x +9
Hello! I would love to help!
Let's first define solve. Solve means to get the variable, or unknown, by itself. So, we know that we've solved the equation if we get our variable, x, by itself.
Let's look at the problem like this: What number, minus 1/2, is equal to 4?
To solve this problem, let's reverse the order.
X-1/2=4
Since it is -1/2, let's add 1/2 to each side to cancel the one half out, since -1/2+1/2=0
X-1/2+1/2=4+1/2
Now, we can simplify!
X=4 1/2
That is your answer! X=4 1/2 or as an improper fraction 9/2.

Answer:
The number of hex nuts in the bin after that delivery are 1.3x.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of nuts in the bin before delivery be = x
After a delivery at noon that day, the number of hex nuts in the bin increased by 30%.
Means x + (30% of x)
This gives :
Hence, the number of hex nuts in the bin after that delivery are 1.3x.
