[ Answer ]

\boxed{\bold{X \ = \ -8}}

[ Explanation ]

  • Solve For X: 6(x - 1) = 9(x + 2)

------------------------------

  • Expand 6(x - 1): 6x - 6

  • Expand 9(x + 2): 9x + 18

6x - 6 = 9x + 18

  • Add 6 To Both Sides

6x - 6 + 6 = 9x + 18 + 6

  • Simplify

6x = 9x + 24

  • Subtract 9x From Both Sides

6x - 9x = 9x + 24 - 9x

  • Simplify

-3x = 24

  • Divide Both Sides By -3

\frac{-3x}{-3} = \frac{24}{-3}

  • Simplify

X = -8

\boxed{\bold{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}}}

Are the lines with equations 2x -3y = 8 and -x + 4y=2 parallel, perpendicular, or neither
skad [1K]

Answer:

neither

Step-by-step explanation:

First, arrange the equations to fit the y=mx + b format

1. 2x - 3y = 8

y = -2/3x - 8/3

2. -x + 4y = 2

y = 1/4x + 1/2

Equations that are parallel have the same slope.

In perpendicular equations, one slope would be x and the other would be -1/x (negative reciprocal)

The equations are neither parallel nor perpendicular, so neither.

Two consecutive integers have a sum of 185.find the integers
Strike441 [17]

Answer: 92 and 93

Step-by-step explanation:

The two consecutive integers will be written thus

= x + (x + 1)

The sum. x + (x+ 1).= 185'

x + x + 1 = 185

2x + 1 = 185

2x = 185 - 1

2x = 184

x = 184/2

= 92.

Therefore, the Integers are 92 and 93.

Licemer1 [7]

Given :

Rema purchased 18 ounces of gold in 2005 for $414 per ounce in order to try to diversify her investment portfolio.

She sold a third of her holdings in gold in 2009 at a price $953 per ounce. She sold the rest of her gold holdings in 2010 for $1,367 per ounce.

To Find :

What is Prema’s profit in 2009 and 2010.

Solution :

Price of one third ounces of gold, in 2005 is :

P = $414/3 = $138 .

Profit from selling them in 2009 is :

P1 = $(953 - 138) = $815 .

Profit from selling them in 2010 is :

P2 = $( 1367 - ( 414 - 138 ) ) = $1091 .

Therefore, Prema's profit in 2009 is $815 and 2010 is $1091.

Hence, this is the required solution.
