Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the problem into y=mx+b format we knoe the inital value b is 6 now m is 3 and y the overall price is 24. Use the distributive property.

24=6+3x y=6+3x y=24

-6  -6

<u>18</u>=<u>3x</u>

3    3

6=x

x=6

. Osteen has 32 marbles in his collection. 18 of his marbles are red, four are blue, and the rest are
nalin [4]

Answer: B

Explanation:  

32 marbles in total.

18 red marbles

4 blue marbles

10 green marbles.

You are asked what part of Osteen's marbles are red?

Probability = number of possible outcomes/total number of out outcomes.

P(Red) = 18/32 = 9/16

Both, 18 and 32 are divisible by 2 which gives 9/16. Since 9/16 cannot be reduced any further, we live it as it is. If you wanted to plug this into a calculator that would give 0.5625 which is 56.25% of Osteen's marbles are red.

P(Blue) = 4/32 = 1/8. 1/8 = 0.125 which 12.5% of his marbles are blue.

P(Green) = 10/32 = 5/16. 5/16= 0.3125 which 31.25 of his marbles are green. When you add 0.5625 + 0.125 + 0.3125 = 1 which is 100%. All probabilities add up to 1.

Hope this elaborate explanation helps.

Help QUICK!!!<br> what is the slope of the line?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We need two points to use the slope formula

(0,2) and (2,0) are points on the line

m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (0-2)/(2-0)

   = -2/2

   =-1

What is the slope and the y-intercept of the graph of the linear function shown on the grid ?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Slope: -1/4; Y-Intercept: 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the slope. The best way to do this is to transform the two given points to y=mx+b form. When given two points, the best way to find the slope will be to do y2-y1/x2-x1. In this equation it would be -2-0/2+6, which is -2/8, simplified is -0.25 or -1/4. So we have the slope, which can determine the length of the line.

Step 2: Find the Y-Intercept. Finding the Y-intercept is so much simpler when given a graph, since all you have to do is find where the line goes through the y-axis, which in this case is (0,1.5), meaning that the y-intercept is 1.5 <em>(note: the y-intercept can also be found when x=0, for example (0,9).</em>

Hope this helped, good luck!
