Answer:

(A) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets define the number as x.

"8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number" is translated into "8(x - 6) = 4x"

8(x - 6) = 4x

8x - 48 = 4x

4x = 48

x = 12

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.  12

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.

<u>To find the number</u>

Let x be the number, then we can write,

8 * (x - 6) = 4x

8x - 48 = 4x

8x - 4x = 48

4x = 48

x = 48/4 = 12

Therefore the correct answer is option A.  12

Find the equation of the line specified. The slope is -7, and it passes through ( 5, -3).
Montano1993 [528]
The general equation of a line is
y= ax + b
where a is the slope
So a = -7
So y= -7x + b
But it passes through the point (5, -3)
Substitute the coordinates to calculate b:
So -3 = -7(5) + b
-3 = -35 + b
b= 35-3
b= 32
So the equation of the line of slope -7 and passing through the point (5, -3) is
y= -7x + 32
