Answer:

Each person will earn $16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount of loss faced by the company = $144

Number of people who would share the amount = 9

Let,

x be the share of each person.

Number of people * Share per person = Total loss

9x = 144

Dividing both sides by 9

$\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{144}{9}\\$

x = $16

Hence,

Each person will earn $16.

Find the value of 6x - 5 given that −17x -9 = 8

Nikitich [7]

Okay, So We Need To Solve For X, So We Can Solve The Expression:
6x - 5.

Lets Begin.

-17x - 9 = 8.

So, We First Need To Add 9 To Both Sides.

-17x = 8 + 9

8+9 = 17.

-17x = 17

Divide.

-17x/-17 = 1x = x.

So:

X = 17/-17

17/-17 = -1

So:

X = -1

Now, Plug In The Value For The Expression.

6 * (-1) - 5

6 * (-1) = -6

(-6) - 5 = -11.

So, Our Value For 6x - 5 Is -11.

Brandy wants to buy a digital camera that cost 300.suppose she saves 15 each week. In how many weeks will she have enough money

Tcecarenko [31]

20 weeks.

Bar graph: Start with zero, and the next ones (bars) will all increase by a 15 interval over the period of 20 weeks. So 1 bar per week, and there are 20 weeks, with each bar having a 15$ profit difference. Sorry, can't draw it here.

equation: 15x=300
15/(15x=300)/15
x=20
