Answer: x = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

(x / 2) - 8 = 16

1/2x - 8 = 16

x - 16 = 32

x = 32 + 16

x = 48

Answer:

x=48.

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's make an equation out of this.

x

--   -   8   =    16

2

The first thing that we do it add 8 on both sides of the equation. So now we have.

x

--   =  24

2

Up next is to multiply 2 by both sides of the equation so that we get the equation of...

x = 48.

Which is a unit rate?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

3 cookies/bag

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let's define a unit rate. A unit rate is a ratio of the amount of one measurement to one unit of another measurement term. Unit rates can be expressed as fractions.

Now, here is something easier for you to remember: <u>the second unit always have to be something with the quantity of 1</u>.

In this case, "3 cookies/bag" shows how there are three cookies per, or in each bag--which means 1 bag. The second unit, which is bag, has the quantity of one.

What is the actual slope of this line?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

  -4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line has a "rise" between the two points of -4 units for a "run" of +1 unit. The slope is the ratio ...

  m = rise/run = -4/1 = -4.

The slope is -4.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

A "whole number" must be non-negative. Here, the slope is negative. If you're restricted to "a fraction or a whole number", then the appropriate answer is the fraction -4/1. We suspect that "integer" is meant where "whole number" is used.

write the equation of the line that passes through the given points (0,-1) and (-5,-7) Simplify your answer
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

y = 6/5 x-1  slope intercept form

6x-5y = 5  standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the points  (0,-1) and (-5,-7)

We can find the slope using

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

 = (-7--1)/(-5-0)

 = (-7+1)/(-5-0)

 = -6/-5

 = 6/5

We also have the y intercept ( when x=0)  It is -1

We can use the slope intercept form of the equation y = mx+b

y = 6/5 x-1

Depending on what you mean when you say simplify your answer

We can put it in standard form  ax+by = C

Multiply both sides by 5

5y =5* 6/5 x-1*5

5y = 6x-5

Subtract 6x from each side

-6x+5y = 6x-6x-5

-6x+5y = -5

Multiply by -1

6x-5y = 5
