Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
18x + -6y = 12
Solving
18x + -6y = 12
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '6y' to each side of the equation.
18x + -6y + 6y = 12 + 6y
Combine like terms: -6y + 6y = 0
18x + 0 = 12 + 6y
18x = 12 + 6y
Divide each side by '18'.
x = 0.6666666667 + 0.3333333333y
Simplifying
x = 0.6666666667 + 0.3333333333y
Uhhh i think the answers A
To answer the question we need to know if 35 out of 50 states is equal or greater than 3/4 if that is the case, the Constitution will be ammended, and that is represented like this:
35/50 >= 3/4
that inequality is saying that 35 states out of 50 is equal or greater than 3/4, lets simplify and modify the fractions to compare easily:
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>now we need to find the least common multiplier of 10 and 4 to take the fractions to a common denominator and compare easy. Lets multiply numerator and denominator for a correct number to get the fractions to denominator common 20, the lcm:
7/10 <span>>= 3/4
</span>(2/2)(7/10) >= (5/5)(3/4)
2*7/2*10 >= 5*3/5*4
14/20 >= 15/20
we can see that the inequality does not hold, so,
<span>35/50 >= 3/4
</span>does not hold either, therefore the Constitution cannot be ammended
