Answer: A) x=6
Step-by-step explanation: my trick that i do with these questions are to just fill in the x's with the different choices that they give you.
so... first try out 6. fill in every x with a 6. so now, x isn't x anymore, it's 6.
(8-6)=2
9 times 2= 18
3 times 6= 18
this means that x would equal 6
if that first one doesn't work, try out the other ones. but this one works, so we know we have the right answer. i hope this helps with this problem, and i hope it helps with other problems like this too.

Answer:
Roman
Step-by-step explanation:
An easy way to solve this is looking at whether the line has a positive or negative slope. We read graphs from left to right so <u>if the line is increasing from left to right, it has a positive slope while a line decreasing from left to right has a negative slope</u>. Since the line shown is decreasing from left to right, it will have a negative slope and Roman is the only one out of the two that shows a negative slope. To check to see if he's correct, we can check the y-intercept. The y-intercept of the line is 8 and Roman also has 8 written in the expression. Hence, meaning Roman is correct.
Best of Luck!
7 will never equal 8 so there is no solution. so i think it is C
