Answer:

g = j - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Jessie installed j axles. Convert words to math:

- "12 more" = + 12

- "the number of engine blocks her friend Gus installed yesterday" = g

Put it together: g + 12. This is equal to j: j = g + 12. Solve for g:

j = g + 12

g = j - 12

Lets use the variables "a" and "g" to solve.

a =  number of axles

g =  number of engine blocks

If Jessie has 12 more axles than the number of engine blocks, this means we are adding (g + 12).

Now, we have the expression a = g + 12

Solve for g since we are finding the number of engine blocks Gus Installed.

a = g + 12

~Subtract 12 to both sides

a - 12 = g + 12 - 12

a - 12 = g

Therefore, the answer is [ a - 12 = g ]

Best of Luck!

Studentka2010 [4]
Based on our conversation above, we can then easily find the missing x-coordinate. If the equation for line BC is y = 6*x - 11 and we know that the y-coordinate is 13, then

13 = 6*x - 11
24 = 6*x
4 = x

The x-coordinate is 4.
