A) -9
-7(x+9)=9(x-5)-14x
-7x-63=9x-45-14x
-45 -45
-7x-18=9x-14x
+7x +7x
-18=9x+7x-14x
-18=2x
(-18)/2=(2x)/2
-9=x
Answer:
-3.8
Step-by-step explanation:
u = 3.8
u × -1 = 3.8 × -1
-u = -3.8
Answer:
p = -6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
<u>Solving for p:</u>
- 18+ 2 (3p – 8) = –37
- 18 + 6p - 16 = -37
- 6p + 2 = -37
- 6p = -37 - 2
- 6p = -39
- p = -39/6
- p = -6.5
Option 2 is correct in the list
The general equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the value of y when the graph crosses the y- axis. Consequently, it is the value of y when x is zero. The slope is the rate of change of y with respect to the change in x. It is calculated from the ratio of the difference of two y values and the difference of the corresponding x values. Given the points would result to a line, we can determine those elements for the line as follows:
b = 36
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (27 - 36) / (3 -0) = -3
So, the equation of the line would be y = -3x + 36.
Answer:
Pretend that x and y represents the 2 numbers that we need to find.
According to the information, we know that:
x + y = 21
6x = y
Replace y in the first equation with 6x (because they are equal to each other according to the second equation):
x + y = 21
x + 6x = 21
7x = 21
x = 21/7 = 3
Now have two ways to find y, both will give us the same result:
3 + y = 21 ⇔ y = 21 - 3 = 18
6 · 3 = y ⇔ y = 18
So the numbers that we need to find are 3 and 18.
