X- y = 7
⇒ y -x = -7 (multiply by -1 on both sides).
⇒ y +(x-x)= -7 +x
⇒ y= x-7

The y-intercept of the line is y= x-7.

Hope this helps~

X-y=7
so you have to rewrite the equation in the form of mx+b=y
so ... x-y=7
-x -x
-y=7-x then simplify
-y(-y)=-(7-x) multiply both sides by -1
y=-7+x
which is the same y= x-7
y=x+-7

If the sum of a number and seven is tripled, the result is three less than twice the number. Find the number

hram777 [196]

Answer:

x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 7) = 2x - 3

3 * x = 3x

3 * 7 = 21

3x + 21 = 2x - 3

-21 -21

3x = 2x -24

-2x -2x

x = -24

For this case we have the following expression:

$\frac {216 ^ {n-2}} {(\frac {1} {36}) ^ {3n}} = 216$

We multiply both sides by: $(\frac {1} {36}) ^ {3n}$

$216 ^ {n-2} = 216 * (\frac {1} {36}) ^ {3n}$

We divide both sides by 216:

$\frac {216 ^ {n-2}} {216} = (\frac {1} {36}) ^ {3n}$

To divide powers of the same base, we place the same base and subtract the exponents:

$216 ^ {n-2-1} = (\frac {1} {36}) ^ {3n}\\216 ^ {n-3} = (\frac {1} {36}) ^ {3n}$

Rewriting:

$(6 ^ 3) ^ {n-3} = (\frac {1} {6 ^ 2}) ^ {3n}\\6 ^ {3n-9} = \frac {1} {6 ^ {6n}}\\6^{ 3n-9} * 6^{ 6n} = 1$

To multiply powers of the same base, we place the same base and add the exponents:

$6^{ 3n-9 + 6n} = 1\\6^{ 9n-9} = 1$

We know that any number raised to zero is 1, $a ^ 0 = 1.$

So, for equality to be true:

$9n-9 = 0\\9n = 9\\n = \frac {9} {9}\\n = 1$

Answer:

$n = 1$

70+20s = 135

-70 -70

20s = 135

divide 20 both sides

s = 6.75

She can buy 6 sweaters because she cannot buy half a sweater.

s - sweaters
