Hello XD

3(x+2) = 3x+6

Distributive property

(3)(x)+(3)(2) = 3x+6

3x+ 6 = 3x+6

Now subtract 3x from both sides

3x+6-3x = 3x+6-3x

6=6

Subtract 6 from both sides

6-6 = 6-6

0=0

In this case the answer is : All real numbers are solution

Ok so

remember the distributive property

a(b+c)=ab+ac

so
3(x+2)=3x+6
we have
3x+6=3x+6
identical
now watch
minus 3x both sides
6=6
true staement

therefor any number you put for x will work

answer is all real numbers

write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-4,4) and (6,9) and figure out what y=mx+b for this equation woul
jeka57 [31]
Hello there! So, y = mx + b is in slope-intercept form, where m represents the slope, b represents the y-intercept, and y and x remain unfilled. First off, let's solve for the slope. The formula for slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1, where you subtract the first x and y coordinates from the second x and y coordinates. So it would be formed like this:

9 - 4 / 6 - (-4)

Let's subtract. 9 - 4 is 5. 6 - (-4) is 10. 5/10 is 1/2 in simplest form. The slope for this equation is 1/2. Now, let's find the y-intercept. We will find that by plugging one of the points into the equation and solving for b. The x and y coordinates will be filled in by that coordinate. Let's use (-4, 4) for this problem. We will also plug in the slope. In this case, the problem will look like this:

4 = (1/2)(-4) + b

Now, let's multiply 1/2 and -4 to get -2. Now, to get b by itself, subtract 2 to both sides to isolate the b. -2 + 2 cancels out. 4 + 2 is 6. b = 6. There. The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = 1/2x + 6.

Write the equation of the line that passes through (3, 4) and 2, -1) in slope-intercept form
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1 -4)/(2 - 3) = -5/-1 = 5

y - 4 = 5(x - 3)

y - 4 = 5x - 15

y = 5x - 11

A 72,000 gallon water tower is being drained. Two thousand gallons are drained in the first hour. How many hours will it take to
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

To drain the water tower it will take 36 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A 72,000 water tower is being drained, and in an hour 2000 gallons are drained.

Now, to calculate the hours it would take to drain total 72,000 gallons of water, we should divide the gallons of water drained in one hour by total gallons of water in the tower.

Gallons of total water in the tower ÷ Gallons of water drained per hour

72000\div 2000

=\ 36

Therefore, to drain the water tower it will take 36 hours.
