Solve the equation 3x + 6y = 18 for x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elena-2011 [213]4 years ago
3 0

3x + 6y = 18    -6y

3x = 18 - 6y     Divide by 3

3x/3=18/3-6y/3  Simplify

x=6-2y

Now we check by plugging in the value of x.

3(6-2y)+6y=18 simplify

18-6y+6y=18    simplify more

18=18.

NOW we know for sure that this is correct

x=6-2y

A picture frame measures 9 inches high and 5.4 Inches wide. It will be proportionately enlarged so the height will be 15 inches.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Width: 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can see that the height increased by 6 inches, provided a difference of 15 and 9. If the question states that the frame's dimensions were proportionately enlarged, perhaps the height's enlargment could be benificial

2. If we were to take a ratio where the increased height is over the previous height (height enlargment/prior height) that would be 6/9, or in other words, can be simplified to be 2/3

3. We can see that if the width were to be enlarged, we might be able to determine how much it should be enlarged through a proportionality, provided <em>the frame's dimensions are proportionately enlarged.</em> Now if x ⇒ the width enlargment: 2 / 3 = x / 5.4

4. Through cross multiplication, let us solve for x:

2 * 5.4 = 3 * x,

10.8 = 3 * x,

x = <em>3.6 inches by which the width should be enlarged</em>

5. If we are to determine the new width of the frame after enlargment, add <em>5.4 to 3.6 ⇒ the width of the frame ⇒ 9 inches</em>
