This question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

On a recent day, 8 euros were worth $9 and 24 euros were worth $27. Write an equation of the form y = kx to show the relationship between the number of euros and the value in dollars.

The equation that represents the relationship between the number of euros and the value in dollars is y = 1.125 x

Step-by-step explanation:

On a resent day;

8 euros were worth $9

24 euros were worth $27

We need to write an equation of the form y = kx to show the relationship between the number of euros and the value in dollars

∵ The form of the equation is y = kx, where x is the number of

euros and y is the value in dollars

∵ 8 euros were worth $9

∴ (8 , 9) is an ordered pair belong to the equation

∵ 24 euros were worth $27

∴ (24 , 27) is another ordered pair belong to the equation

To find k substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates of one of these two points

∵ x = 8 and y = 9

∵ y = kx

∴ 9 = 8k

- Divide both sides by 8

∴ 1.125 = k

- Substitute the value of k in the equation

∴ y = 1.125 x

To check the equation substitute x by the x coordinate of the 2nd point if it gives the same value of the y-coordinate of the point then the equation is true

∵ x = 24

∵ y = 1.125 x

∴ y = 1.125(24)

∴ y = 27 the same value of the y-coordinate of the point

∴ The equation is true

The equation that represents the relationship between the number of euros and the value in dollars is y = 1.125 x

The answer would be x ≠ 0

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First start with the left side, doing distributive property

So... -2(x) = -2x and -2(5) = -10 Therefore on the left side you now have -2x -10

Next do the same on the right side

-2(x) = - 2x and -2(-2) = 4 so you have -2x + 4 + 5 and you add 4 and 5, leaving you with -2x + 9

Now that you have simplified both sides the problem now looks like this:

-2x - 10 = -2x + 9

Because you have equal terms on both sides (-2) those cancel out so you have -10 = 9

Just from looking at this we know that the statement is false because -1o does not equal 9

*The symbol, "≠" means not equal to"

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When working with balanced expressions (stuff on both sides of the equal sign), "what you do to one side, you do to the other", which keeps it balanced.

The first thing we notice is the exponent 1/4, which is one both sides, so we can get rid of it on both sides by using the <u>reverse operation</u>.

The reverse of exponents is <u>square root</u>.

$(4x + 10)^{\frac{1}{4}} = (9 + 7x)^{\frac{1}{4}}\\\sqrt[\frac{1}{4}]{(4x + 10)^{\frac{1}{4}}} = \sqrt[\frac{1}{4}]{(9 + 7x)^{\frac{1}{4}}}\\\\4x + 10 = 9 + 7x$
