$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} \stackrel{pasta}{grams}&people\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 480&4\\ g&14 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{480}{g}=\cfrac{4}{14}\implies \cfrac{480}{g}=\cfrac{2}{7} \\\\\\ \cfrac{480\cdot 7}{2}=g\implies 1680=g$

now, there are 1000 grams in one Kilogram, so in 1680 grams, there are 1680/1000 Kilograms, namely 1.680.

. Here is an equation 2x + 9 = -15. Write three different equations that have the same solution as 2x + 9 = -15. Show or explain

Anettt [7]

Answer:

1. $x-3=-15$
2. $2x=-24$
3. $2x-3=-27$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

$2x+9=-15$

To find three equations that have the same solution as the given equation we have to first solve the equation.

$2x+9=-15$
$9-9=0$
$-15-9=-24$
$2x=-24$
$2x\div2=x$
$-24\div2=-12$
$x=-12$

Equation one:
$x-3=-15$
$-3+3=0$
$-15+3=-12$
$x=-12$

Equation two:
 $2x=-24$
$2x\div2=x$
$-24\div2=-12$
$x=-12$

Equation three:
$2x-3=-27$
$-3+3=0$
$-27+3=-24$
$-24\div2=-12$
$x=-12$

Hope this helps.
