Hi! Your answer is q = -9
Please see an explanation for a better and clear understanding to your problem.
Any questions about my answer and explanation can be asked through comments! :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we want to solve for q-term. That means we are going to isolate q-term.

We can add 4 and 9 together.

Because we want to know the value of q. That means we have to isolate q-term by subtracting both sides by 13.

We are reaching to the final step where we divide the whole equation by 3.

Finally, the solution for this equation is q = -9. But what if you are not certain or sure about the answer? Let's check it out!
To check the answer, simply substitute q = -9 in the equation.

Notice that the equation is true for q = -9. Hence, we can conclude that the solution for this equation is q = -9.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
y=0.25x+35
Step-by-step explanation:
if the truck doesn't have to travel at all, it costs $35 for the loading fee, so the y-intercept is (0, 35). As x increases by 1, y increases by 0.25, so the slope is 0.25. Therefore, the equation is y=0.25x+35
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
40=2a<u>-3</u>+2a+3a<u>+1</u>
add like terms
get 'a' by its self
- 40(+2)=7a<u>-2(+2)</u> [2 cancels out]
- 42(÷7)=7a(÷7) [7 cancels out]
- a=6
plug in the answer for Equations
- biggest: 3(6)+1= 18+1= 19
- smallest: 2(6)-3= 12-3=9
subtract smallest from biggest
Y = 5 - 3x....so sub in 5 - 3x for y in the other equation
5x - 4y = -3
5x - 4(5 - 3x) = -3.....distribute the -4 thru the parenthesis
5x - 20 + 12x = -3...add 20 to both sides
5x + 12x = -3 + 20...combine like terms
17x = 17...divide both sides by 17
x = 17/17
x = 1
now sub 1 in for x into either of the original equations to find y
y = 5 - 3x
y = 5 - 3(1)
y = 5 - 3
y = 2
check...
5x - 4y = -3
5(1) - 4(2) = -3
5 - 8 = -3
-3 = -3 (correct)
so ur solution is (1,2)
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
if all the boys drank out of the jug than the fraction would be 1/3
1/3+1/3+1/3=1
