Currently the equation 6x - 2y = 18 is in standard form. Convert the standard form equation into a slope-intercept form and we can find the slope easily.
Solve for y.
6x - 2y = 18
-2y = 18 - 6x <-- Subtract 6x from each side. This is to isolate the 2y term
2y / -2 =
<-- Divide each side by 2. This it to
get rid of the 2 coefficient.
y = -9 + 3x
Rearrange the right-hand side a bit.
y = -9 + 3x becomes y = 3x - 9
Now it is in slope-intercept form.
The slope is the coefficient of the x variable.
So, 3 is the slope.
Answer: the fourth choice: <span>No, the addition symbol was dropped in the second expression
Justification:
1) The right operation is: </span><span>(4.5m + 7/8) - 9 </span><span>= 4.5m + (7/8 - 9), this is you have to keep the + operator, since you are just grouping the terms in an alternate form.
2) Droping the + operator leads incorrectly to the multiplication of the first term, 4.5m to the terms in parenthesis, instead to the addition, which is what corresponds.

Suppose J, K, L, M, N are points on the same line.
MK = MN + (-KN) = MN - KN = 9x - 11 - x - 3 = 8x - 14
Since LK = MK and LK = 7x - 10, then
7x - 10 = 8x - 14
8x - 7x = -10 + 14
x = 4
LJ = MK + KJ
MK = LK = 7x - 10 = 7(4) - 10 = 28 - 10 = 18
LJ = 18 + 28 = 46
230% in the simplest form is 2.3
mean = (sum of values) / (number of values)
we know mean is 13 and we are given 8 values. The ninth value is the missing x:
13 = ((sum of 8 values) + x)/9
13 = (12+10+15+12+13+15+11+15+x)/9
13*9 = 103+x
x = 14
The missing value is 14. There are 14 pillows in the last box.
