<h3><u>The value of x is equal to 2.</u></h3>

4(x + 1) = 12(3 - x)

<em><u>Distributive property on both sides.</u></em>

4x + 4 = 36 - 12x

<em><u>Add 12x to both sides.</u></em>

16x + 4 = 36

<em><u>Subtract both sides by 4.</u></em>

16x = 32

<em><u>Divide both sides by 16.</u></em>

x = 2

Examine the system of equations,<br> Y = -1/4x -2 , x=4<br> What is the solution
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Y = -1/14

or

Y = -0.0714

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = -1/4x -2 , x=4

Solution:

Y = -1/4x -2 .........equation(a)

put x = 4 in equation(a)

Y = -1/4(4) -2

Y = -1/16 -2  

Y = -1/14

Y = -0.0714

In a function y= .08 + 5, y represents the cost of water per gallons and x represents the number of gallons. How much does the c
kotykmax [81]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

B. 0.08

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>The general form of a linear equation is:</u>

y = mx + c

<u>where:</u>

m is the slope or the rate of change (increase or decrease)

c is the y-intercept or the initial value

Therefore, in a linear equation, the slope simply gives us the rate of change of the function (increase/decrease)

<u>Now, the given equation is:</u>

y = 0.08x + 5

<u>Comparing the given equation with the general form, we will find that:</u>

m = 0.08

Therefore, the cost of water increase for every gallon (rate of change) is 0.08

Hope this helps :)
