1/3x + y = 9
y = -1/3x + 9

-2x + 2y = -6
-2x + 2(-1/3x + 9) = -6
-2x - 2/3x + 18 = -6
-6/3x - 2/3x = -6 - 18
-8/3x = -24
x = -24 * -3/8
x = 9 <== here is y

-2x + 2y = -6
-2(9) + 2y = -6
-18 + 2y = -6
2y = -6 + 18
2y = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6 <=== here is x

The function f(x) = 15(2)^x represents the growth of a frog population every year in a remote swamp. Elizabeth wants to manipula
weeeeeb [17]
Half one is 1/2;
half three is 3/2;
Thus, if f(x) represents annual growth, f(x)/2 shows it every half-year, like this:
\dfrac{f(x)}{2} = \dfrac{15\cdot 2^x}{2} \\  \\ &#10;\dfrac{f(x)}{2} = \dfrac{15}{2}\cdot 2^x

Written in plain text: f(x)=15/2*2^x

Find x so that l || m. state the converse used.

Answer:

x = 12

Converse: Alternate Interior Angles Converse

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Alternate Interior Angles Converse, if (14x - 23) = (9x + 37), then l || m.

Use the equation to solve for x as follows:

14x - 23 = 9x + 37

Subtract 9x from each side

14x - 23 - 9x = 9x + 37 - 9x

5x - 23 = 37

Add 23 to both sides

5x - 23 + 23 = 37 + 23

5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5

\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{60}{5}

x = 12
