Answer: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

I can see the answer is 40, but let's try to figure out how to do it.

I like to use the rule of 3. Let's put the number of passes on the left side and the number of games on the right side.

\frac{8}{x}=\frac{3}{15}

''x'' represents the number of passes in 15 games.

Solve for x;

x=\frac{15*8}{3}\\ x=\frac{120}{3}\\ x=40

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  -3x + 12  =   -3 • (x - 4)  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

2.1    Divide both sides by  -3  

Remember to flip the inequality sign:  

Solve Basic Inequality :

2.2      Add  4  to both sides

            x > 4

How do you find three ordered pairs for -x+2y=-8
zvonat [6]
For a linear equation like this there will always be infinitely many solutions if you let x and y be any real number. So you can just pick any x and find the corresponding y. Take for exmaple x=1 then we get
-1+2y=8
2y=9
y=9/2=4.5 so an ordered pair that satifies your equation is (x,y)=(1,9/2).
Now you can go on and find more.
