Answer:
x=5/13
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3+7/2=9x+5/6+4x
2/3+7/2-5/6=9x+4x
lcm of 2,3,6=6
2/3=4/6 7/2=21/6 5/6=5/6
4/6+21/6-5/6=9x+4x
30/6=13x
5=13x
x=5/13
Hi there! :)
A radical equation is an equation in which a variable (ex. x, y, a, v) is under a radical sign. The only equation that has a variable under a radical (x) is the second option. There is an x next to the 2 under the radical.
I hope this helps, DM me if you have anymore questions. :)

Answer:
Maria: (50 bulbs)/(2 hours) = 25 bulbs/hour
Lois: (45 bulbs)/(3 hours) = 15 bulbs/hour
Together: 25 + 15 = 40 bulbs/hour
(150 bulbs)/(40 bulbs per hour) = 3 3/4 hours
(3/4 hours)(60 minutes/hour) = 45 minutes
Total time: 3 hours 45 minutes
Equation 1: y = -2x + 1
Equation 2: y = 2x - 3
Since both equations already have y isolated, we are able to simply set the right side of both equations equal to each other. Since we know that the value of y must be the same, we can do this.
-2x + 1 = 2x - 3
1 = 4x - 3
4 = 4x
x = 1
Then, we need to plug our value of x back into either of the original two equations and solve for y. I will be plugging x back into equation 2 above.
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(1) - 3
y = 2 - 3
y = -1
Hope this helps!! :)
