<span>9x-y=5
rewriting the eqn in the form y = mx+b we get
y = 9x- 5
slope = 9</span>
Remember you can do anything to an equaiton as long as you do it to both sides
7x-4=5x+15
minus 5x both sides
2x-4=15
add 4 both sides
2x=19
divide by 2
x=19/2
The answer is -3
hope this help!!!!!
answer: 22
15/7.5 = x/11
cross multiply
7.5x = 165
divide by 7.5 on both sides to get the x alone
7.5x/7.5 = 165/7.5
x = 22
the tree is 22 feet
sorry if it’s wrong
