Jan uses 22.5 gallons of water in the shower. This amount is 7.5 gallons less than what she uses when washing her clothes. Write
arsen [322]

22.5 (shower) = X (variable used in place of the amount of water she uses to wash clothes) - 7.5 (the amount she used in the shower is 7.5 gallons less than she uses for washing clothes)

22.5 = X - 7.5 《 This is the equation.

Solve is by adding 7.5 to both sides to cancel out the negative 7.5 and you get (X = 30).

Find an equation of the line passing through the pair of points (2,3) and (5,9). Write the equation in the form Ax + By = C.
8090 [49]

Answer:

- 2x +  y  = - 1 , so the B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

+ Because of "the line passing through the pair of points (2,3) and (5,9)", that means the line has the equation y = ax + b where a = (9-3)/(5-2)= 6/3= 2

+ So the equation is y = 2x + b.

+ Then we replace x= 2 and y= 3 into y = 2x + b for finding  like:

3 = 2*2 + b or 3 = 4 + b, so we find b = 3 - 4 = - 1.

+ The equation of this line is y = 2x - 1 or in the form:

                                  2x - y - 1 = 0 (or -2x + y = -1)

Have a good day!

5 5 I think of a number, treble it then add on 3, the result is equal to 6. Find the value of the original number I thought of.​
Licemer1 [7]

Let the number be x

  • If 3 is added to tripple the number then the result is 6

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x+3=6

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=6-3

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3x=3

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=1
