Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

Given statement :Three added to 4 times a number is equal to 5 less than 6 times the number.

Then according to the above statement, we have the following equation:-

3+4x=6x-5

Subtract 4x from both sides , we get

3=2x-5

Add 5 on both the sides , we get

8=2x

Divide both sides by 2 , we get

4=x

Hence, the number is 4.

Answer:

The third choice

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the slope and y-intercept of the line and then put it into y = mx = b form. To find the slope, pick a point on the line; I will use (-2, 5); count how many units up you need to go to get to the next point on the line, which in this case it would be 3. The count how many to the right or left you would need to go, which is 1 to the left. Moving left means a negative, so it is -1. Your slope fraction would be \frac{3}{-1} , since slope is rise over run. You can sub this fraction in for m in y = mx + b, which will give you a revised equation of y = -3x = b. To find the y intercept, or b, just find the point where the line crosses the y-axis, which is -1. So, the equation is now y = -3x - 1.The correct answer is third choice.

Ok so pete lays 10 more than jim per hour

pete and jim laid same amount of tiles

j=jim's rate
p=pete's rate

6j=5p

but pete lays 10 tile per hour faster so
p=10+j

sub
6j=5(10+j)
6j=50+5j
minus 5j both sides
j=50


jim can lay at 50 tiles per hour

What is the value of y?<br> y +10°<br> 50°<br> A. 500<br> B. 40°<br> C. 60°<br> ОО<br> D. 300
klasskru [66]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180° , then

y + 10 + 2y + 50 = 180 , that is

3y + 60 = 180 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

3y = 120 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 40 → B
