They are proportional, so we can say:

12/9.6 = 6/x

12x = 57.6

x = 4.8ft

Three times a number w is less than 18.
sweet [91]

Answer:

3w < 18

Step-by-step explanation:

To do 3 times if you put 3 against a variable that means to multiply. Since a number is unknown it turns into variable which is w in this case. Then less than 18 to do the less than symbol, think of them like crocodile they always eat the bigger number and since 3w is less than 18 the croc < eats 18. Thats just an easy way of remembering. Hope this helps :)

Can someone please help I’m very confused
Oxana [17]

y + 6 = 4/3(x - 2)

First, distribute the 4/3

y + 6 = 4/3x - 8/3

Subtract 6 from both sides.

y = 4/3x - 26/3

-26/3 is the y-intercept so start the graph at coordinate (0, -26/3)

After you plot the y-intercept, add 4 to they y-coordinate and 3 to the x-coordinate of the y-intercept to get the next point.

0 + 3 = 3

-26/3 + 4 = -14/3

The next point should be at (3, -14/3)

Add as many points as your professor requires.
