6 0

Answer:x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-2)=6x-12

3x-6=6x-12

Collect like terms

6x-3x=12-6

3x=6

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3=6/3

x=2

When you divide a whole number by a decimal less than 1, the quotient is greater than the whole number. Why?
LuckyWell [14K]
1 can be interpreted as a "whole" thing, and smaller than 1 is a part of a thing.

imagine: if you have some cakes and you count the number of cake pieces, those will be more than the number of cakes: as each cake will have more than one piece! (otherwise it wouldn't be called a piece!)

so the result of a division by a fraction is bigger than the original number, there are more parts than wholes in the results, as each whole has multiple parts!

for example: divide 3 cakes into pieces which are 1/4th of a cake. how many such pieces would there be? 12! more than the 3 original cakes;

is this possible to understand? tell me if not!

The metric system originated in France in 1799 following the French Revolution although decimal units had been used in many other countries and cultures previously. Although there have been many different measurements and the definitions of the units have been revised, the official system of measurements of most countries is the modern form of the metric system which is known as the "International System of Units".

a line is perpendicular to y=-4x-2 and intersects the point (0,9). what is the equation for this perpendicular line?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

y=(1/4)x + 9      OR      y=x/4 +9

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have a slope/gradient of -1/n

Because the slope of this line is -4, the slope of a line perpendicular to it would be 1/4.

y=(1/4)x+b

(0,9) is the y-intercept, so b = 9

y=(1/4)x + 9      OR      y=x/4 +9

Answer ASAP! Which statement best illustrates using the vertical line test to determine if the graph below is a function of x?
vlabodo [156]

Answer: is If something is a function, every x-value, only has one (1) y-value. If the line x = 0 intersects the graph in two points, there are to values for y (instead of one). Therefore the graph is not a function of x.
