Answer:

Hi, there for x it will be x=−2y+6

But if your solving for y it will be y=-\frac{1}{2}x+3

Hope this Helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

2x+4y=12

Step 1: Add -4y to both sides.

2x+4y+−4y=12+−4y

2x=−4y+12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-4y+12}{2}

x=−2y+6

2.

Let's solve for y.

2x+4y=12

Step 1: Add -2x to both sides.

2x+4y+−2x=12+−2x

4y=−2x+12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 4

\frac{4y}{4} =\frac{-2x+12}{4}

y=-\frac{1}{2} x+3

Nikitich [7]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

A box contains 12 balls numbered 1 through 12.

Also the ball are drawn without replacement.

a)

The probability that the first ball had a smaller number on​ it.

i.e. the number on the first ball could be: {1,2,3}

Hence, the probability  that the first ball had a smaller number on​ it is:

              \dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25

b)

The probability that the first ball has a even number on it is:

There are total 6 even numbers {2,4,6,8,10,12}

but 4 can't be considered as it comes on the second draw, so we are left with just 5 balls with even number.

Hence, the probability is:

\dfrac{5}{12}=0.4166

Car dealers sometimes use the rule of thumb that a car loses about 30% of its value each year. 1. Suppose you bought a new car i
Artemon [7]

Answer: A=15000(1.30)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the price of an item after t years after withe a depreciation rate of r% is A=P(1-\dfrac{r}{100})^t, where P = Initial value of item.

Given: P = $15,000, r= 30%

Then, the value of car after t years will be :

A= 15000(1+\dfrac{30}{100})^t\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=15000(1+0.30)^t\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=15000(1.30)^t

The required general formula for the value of the car t years after its purchase:

A=15000(1.30)^t

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The per hour income of Siobhan is $9.31 per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Working in a grocery store James makes $7.00 per hour. Priya's hourly income is 40% more than James, and Siobhan's  hourly income is 5% less than Priya.

Therefore, using formula of percentage, the per hour income of Priya will be

7.00(1 + \frac{40}{100}) = 7 \times 1.4 = 9.8 dollars per hour.

Again, the per hour income of Siobhan is 9.8(1 - \frac{5}{100}) = 9.8 \times 0.95 = 9.31 dollars per hour. (Answer)
