Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a proportion.

Let x be the number of pencils needed.

\frac{100}{90} = \frac{x}{8500}

Solve for x.

x = 9444.44 pencils (round it up to 9445 pencils if you need a whole number)

Given that 7x - 3y = 23
Triss [41]
7x - 3(-2) = 23
7x - - 6 = 23 (two minuses make a plus)
so it’s gonna be 7x + 6 = 23
Now you have isolate you x, so move everything else to the other side, but remember to change your sign when transferring to the other side

7x = 23 - 6
7x = 17
To isolate x in this multiple, you divide by 7 (because the inverse of multiplication is division)
x = 17/7

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

y= mx+b

(16, -7) = (x,y)

2(16) - 3y = 12

32 - 3y = 12

32 - 12 = 3y

20/3 = y

6.6 = y

2x-3(-7) = 12

2x+21 = 12

2x = 12 - 21

x = -9/2

Insert the values into y = mx + b

solve for m and then solve for b
