Answer:

x = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Unknown number = x

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

\frac {x}{2} - 10 = 6

Lowest common denominator (LCD) = 2

We multiply all through by 2;

2* \frac {x}{2} - 2*10 = 2*6

x - 20 = 12

x = 12 + 20

x = 32

Therefore, the unknown number is 32.

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

4.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to decide whether the slope is negative or positive. Since the line is going diagonally upward, it is positive.

That means the answer has to be either 3 or 4.

Next, you have to decide whether the y-intercept is negative or positive, on the graph, you can see that it is positive.

Answer choice 4 is the only equation where both the slope and the y-intercept are positive, so it is the answer.
