Hello!
6 - 9 × y = -15
When "less than" is used you switch the number before it the number after it. While it seems like it would be 9 -6, its actually 6-9
6 - 9 is -3, you can multiply 3 by 5, to get 15. So your answer would be 5
Hope this helps!

Since the steps are the same size, and she ended up where she started, she must have taken the same number of steps forward as she took backward.
16/2 = 8
She took 8 steps forward and 8 steps backward.
The answer would be $19,270.
Steps:
1. Take 17,000 and multiply by 8%.
2. Take the sum of that which is $1,360 and multiply by two (for the two years).
3.The sum of that would be $2,720 and add onto $17,000.
4. The sum of that would be $19,270!
Simplify the following:
(3 sqrt(2) - 4)/(sqrt(3) - 2)
Multiply numerator and denominator of (3 sqrt(2) - 4)/(sqrt(3) - 2) by -1:
-(3 sqrt(2) - 4)/(2 - sqrt(3))
-(3 sqrt(2) - 4) = 4 - 3 sqrt(2):
(4 - 3 sqrt(2))/(2 - sqrt(3))
Multiply numerator and denominator of (4 - 3 sqrt(2))/(2 - sqrt(3)) by sqrt(3) + 2:
((4 - 3 sqrt(2)) (sqrt(3) + 2))/((2 - sqrt(3)) (sqrt(3) + 2))
(2 - sqrt(3)) (sqrt(3) + 2) = 2×2 + 2 sqrt(3) - sqrt(3)×2 - sqrt(3) sqrt(3) = 4 + 2 sqrt(3) - 2 sqrt(3) - 3 = 1:
((4 - 3 sqrt(2)) (sqrt(3) + 2))/1
((4 - 3 sqrt(2)) (sqrt(3) + 2))/1 = (4 - 3 sqrt(2)) (sqrt(3) + 2):
Answer: (4 - 3 sqrt(2)) (sqrt(3) + 2)
