Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

here you go

step 1

3(-3 - 3x) = 27  equation

step 2

3(-3 - 3x) = 27  Distribute

-9x-9=27

step 3

-9x-9(+9)=27(+9)  add 9

-9x=36

step 4

\frac{-9x}{-9} =\frac{36}{-9}  Divide both sides by 9

answer

x=-4

What should be added to -5/4 to get -1?
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can actually write an equation to find what should be added to get -1.

-\frac{5}{4}+x=-1

We get this equaiton because the problem asks what should be added to -5/4 to get -1. We put x in place to see what number fits. X is being added to the -5/4.

x=-1+\frac{5}{4}

x=-\frac{4}{4}+\frac{5}{4}

x=\frac{1}{4}

What is the next number in the pattern: 3, 6, 7, 14, 15, 30, 31, 62, 63, …
Leviafan [203]
The pattern goes like this:
one number, the next number is the first number doubled, then the third number is the second number + 1, and so on.
So, you see that 3 * 2 = 6, and then 6 + 1 = 7, and so on. This means that you have to multiply 63 by 2, and get 126, and then add 1 to get 127.
So, the next number in the pattern is 126.

Flora used 1/5 of her flour to make some pies and 4/15 of it to bake some cakes. She also gave her friend 750g of flour. She had
MariettaO [177]

According to the information given, building and solving an expression, it is found that she used 1400 g of flour for the cakes.

<h3>How was the flour divided?</h3>
  • Her initial amount was of x.
  • She used \frac{x}{5} to make some pies.
  • She used \frac{4x}{15} to bake some cakes.
  • She gave her friend 750g, and had 850g left.

Hence, the <em>expression </em>is:

\frac{x}{5} + \frac{4x}{15} + 750 + 850 = x

x - \frac{x}{5} - \frac{4x}{15} = 1600

\frac{15x - 3x - 4x}{15} = 1600

8x = 15(1600)

x = 15(200)

x = 3000

For the cakes:

C = \frac{x}{5} + \frac{4x}{15} = \frac{3000}{5} + \frac{4(3000)}{15} = 600 + 800 = 1400

She used 1400 g of flour for the cakes.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line through point P(8,2) with slope 4
nata0808 [166]

Hello!

Firstly, we need to know what the slope-intercept form is. Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. In this equation, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Our goal here is to find the y-intercept. To find b, we will substitute the slope and the given ordered pair into the slope-intercept equation and solve algebraically.

y = mx + b (substitute the slope and point P)

2 = 2(8) + b (multiply)

2 = 16 + b (subtract 16 from both sides)

b = -14

Therefore, the equation is y = 2x - 14.
