Let's use the variable, x, to represent the unknown number.
We can represent the words, "the sum of a number and six, as : x + 6
The words, " 2 less than the sum", can be represented as: x + 6 - 2
The words, "the product of the number and three", can be written as: 3x
Now create an equation using "is equal to" to join the expressions:
x + 6 -2 = 3x
Now combine like terms and use inverse operations to solve for x:
x + 6 -2 = 3x
x + 4 = 3x
x + 4 - x = 3x - x
4 = 2x
4/2 = 2x/2
2 = x
The unknown number is 2
You should put a lot of the 26% as it is necessary
The slope of the line is 3/4 and the line is from the point (0, 2)
Equation of a line
A line is defined as the shortest distance between two points. The standard equation of a line is given as y = mx + b
where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
Given the equation y = -5/4 x
From the given equation, the slope of the line is 3/4 and the line is from the point (0, 2) as shown.

Answer:
x=-2, y=-2. (-2, -2).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-5y=6
-2x+10y=-16
-------------------
5y=-10
y=-10/5=-2
2x-5(-2)=6
2x+10=6
2x=6-10
2x=-4
x=-4/2=-2
Yes. This is because you take the two fractions and find a common denominator. The common denominator being 12 so then you have 39/12 and 8/12. If each scarf she makes is 8/12 yards of fabric she should have enough to make two scarves.
