Given:

Bees scored 9 less than three times as many points as the Hornets.

Wasps scored 28 more points than the Hornets.

Together the three teams scored 184 points.

To find:

The required equation for this scenario.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of points scored by the Hornets.

Bees scored 9 less than three times as many points as the Hornets.

Bees score = 3x-9

Wasps scored 28 more points than the Hornets.

Wasps score = x+28

Together the three teams scored 184 points.

(3x-9)+x+(x+28)=184

Therefore, the required equation is (3x-9)+x+(x+28)=184.

What is the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (−4, −1) and (5, 7) ?
Sergio039 [100]

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (-4, -1) and (5, 7). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{7-(-1)}{5-(-4)}=\dfrac{7+1}{5+4}=\dfrac{8}{9}\\\\\boxed{y-7=\dfrac{8}{9}(x-5)}

Which inequality is true when the value of R is 18? I'ma shower the answers i can choose in the picture ​
musickatia [10]

Answer:

See below:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! We can check to see if the inequality is true by replacing r with 18 as we have been told to find them in which 18 as r makes the equation true.

So our equations to test for are:

-r-3>-6\\-r+3

We can input 18 as r and then we see the following are correct:

1. No, as a -21 is not greater than -6

2. Yes, as -15 is less than 6.

3. No, as 21 is not greater than 6

4. No, as -15 is not greater than 6.

Cheers!
