Answer: x=2

3x−9x+7−3=−8

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x−9x+7−3=−8

3x+−9x+7+−3=−8

(3x+−9x)+(7+−3)=−8

−6x+4=−8

−6x+4=−8

−6x+4−4=−8−4

−6x=−12

−6x

−6

=

−12

−6

x=2

\bf \stackrel{\textit{\underline{y} varies directly with the square of \underline{x} and inversely with \underline{z}}}{y=\cfrac{kx^2}{z}}
\\\\\\
\textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}

MATH HELP
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

rate=1.28571428571.. (1.29) miles per minute, or 77.1428571429.. (77.14) mph

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>"use distance = rate time (d=rt) to find the number of miles per hour Etty must drive to go 45 miles in 35 minutes. ( remember time is written in hours?"</em>

distance=rate*time--- we know distance and time

45 mi= rate*35

rate=45/35

rate=1.28571428571 miles per minute, or 77.1428571429 mph

What is 2x-3=15 i need help
Bingel [31]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3 = 15

2x = 15 + 3

2x = 18 (divide both sides by 2 to get x)

2x/2 = 18/2

x = 9

when asked to write a point slope equation for a line passing through the points (-3,-5) and (2,4) a student wrote y-4=-9/5(x-2)
Eduardwww [97]
(-3,-5)(2,4)
slope(m) = (4 - (-5) / (2 - (-3) = (4 + 5) / (2 + 3) = 9/5

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 9/5
(2,4)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 4
sub
y - 4 = 9/5(x - 1)....this is the correct answer

the student figured the slope wrong....it is 9/5...not -9/5
