12x > 18x - 27 - 15
12x > 18x - 42
12x - 18x > -42
-6x > -42
x < -42/-6
two negatives make a positive so now its x < 42/6
Lastly divide 42/6 so it can equal 7
Answer: X < 7.
X=8 i did mental math but 56x-16-x=424
+16 +16
55x=440
/55 /55
x=8
Answer:
y = (4x - 9) / 5 or y = 4/5x - 9/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for y
4x - 5y = 9
-5y = -4x + 9
5y = 4x - 9
y = (4x - 9) / 5 or y = 4/5x - 9/5
The answer is A,

. This is because when plugging in -2 for x, the expression will look like this:

. To make the exponent positive, you have to flip it into a fraction. Then it will be

. Lastly, you simplify the denominator into 81.
