Answer:
5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
If the sum of two numbers is x
Then the equation is like this:
a+b = x
Then it says one of the number is 12. Change either a or b into 12
12 + b =x
If we want to find the other number, we need the make it into the subject
b = x - 12
Hope that help.
(for x=0) 3 & (for x=4) 19
In our equation, the Y value is the dependent variable and the X is the independent variable. The amount of pounds lost depends on the number weeks on a diet. To get the actual pounds Steve was able to lose in 4 weeks, we have:
Y = 1.8x + 1.2
Y = 1.8(4) + 1.2
Y = 8.4 pounds
15x-6+x-3=39
16x-9=39
16x=39+9
16x=48
x=48/16
x=3
