Answer:
20 games
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets work backwards; *Adding what he gave away or lost*
-Alex started with 16 video games
-Add the games gave to his brother (+2)
-Add the games he sold (+3)
-The number is 3/4 of his games
-Subtract the games he traded with hector (-1/4)
Equation: 16+2+3-6= 3/4 X (variable) *You can choose other than X*
21-6 = 15
15 = 3/4
Take the reciprical of 3/4 which is 4/3 and multiply it by both sides
4/3 x 15 = 3/4 x 4/3
4/3 X 15 = 20!

Answer: To approximate a number to the nearest tenth you have to look at the hundredths digit. If it is 5 or more you have to add 1 to the tenths digit, else if it is lower than 5 you leave the tenths digit unchanged.
Step-by-step explanation:
6000 pounds because 1 ton is 2000 pounds so you times 2000 by 3 and get 6000
To find the equation of a line using two given set of points, you must first find slope. To do so, we must use the slope formula:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
In this case:
1 - 9 / -1 - 3 = -8 / -4
- 8 / -4 = 2 (simplified)
Now we can use the point-slope formula:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 2(x + 1 )
y - 1 = 2x + 2
y = 2x + 3
In order to make 3x - y = 6 in slope intercept form, we must isolate y.
- y = -3x + 6
Note: y cannot be negative, so we'll multiply both sides by -1
( -1 ) - y = - 3x + 6 ( -1 ) = y = 3x -6
