2×9= 18

18÷9= 2

Answer: 2 cups of fruit punch.

----------

Explanation: so, you divide. why do I know this? because it doesn't say "times," (multiplication word) "more than," (addition word) "less than/ left over." (subtraction word) so what your looking for is "equally," and "each."

So, can you do 2÷9? no, you cant. so you have to multiply 2×9 to get the answer. and what's the answer? 18!

so, now, can you divide 18÷9? yes!! why? because you can only divide big numbers like 18. and you can't divide small numbers like 2 or 9. do you get what I'm saying?

so, what's 18÷9? 2!!


I hope this helps! :) if you still don't understand it just please let me know :)

Choose the slope-intercept form of 3x + 2y = 5.
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

y = -3x/2 + 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, basically what you do is modify it so that y is on one side.

3x+2y = 5

2y = 5-3x

y = (5-3x)/2

y = 5/2 -3x/2

So, the answer is the second option.

Consider the function represented by 9x + 3y= 12 with x as the independent variable. How can this function be written
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: f(x) = -3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is represented by

9x + 3y= 12

This is a linear equation with x as the independent variable. This means that if x is the independent variable, the y is the dependent variable. The values of y depends on the values of x. In order to represent the function, 9x + 3y= 12, we would rearrange the function such that y stands alone on the left hand side of the equation. This becomes

9x + 3y= 12

Subtracting 9x from both sides,

9x -9x + 3y = 12 - 9x

3y = 12-9x

Dividing the lefthand side and right hand side of the equation by 3, it becomes

3y/3 = (12-9x)/3

y= -3x + 4

using function notation,

y = f(x) = -3x + 4
