X2=9 has only one solution, which is 4.5
4 ounces are left because 3/4 of 20 is 5. And 1/5 of 5 is 4. I hope this helps
The number is 142
you first make an equation ;
86+x=2x-56
Add 56 to both sides
142+x=2x
Subtract x from both sides
142=x

Answer: Q = 8</h3>
====================================================
Explanation:
The left hand side of the first equation is x-3y
The left hand side of the second equation is 2x-6y = 2(x-3y). Note how it's simply double of the first expression x-3y
If we multiply both sides of the first equation by 2, we get
x-3y = 4
2(x-3y) = 2*4
2x-6y = 8
Meaning that 2x-6y = 8 is equivalent to x-3y = 4. Both produce the same line leading to infinitely many solutions. Each solution will lay along the line x-3y = 4.
We can say each solution is in the set {(x,y): x-3y = 4}
Which is the same as saying each solution is of the form (3y+4,y)
(-2,4) and (-4, - 8)
slope = (4 + 8)/(-2+4) = 12/2 = 6
answers are E and B
y - 4 = 6(x + 2)
y + 8 = 6(x + 4)
