Answer:

Frank, you're wrong!  x=x is a variable, where 12=12 is a specific number.  x can represent any number, even 12.  So Frank's answer is more general, whereas Sarah's answer is specific.  

Explanation:

2(x+12)+6=3(x+6)+(12-x)

2x+24+6=3x+18+12-x

2x+30=2x+30

2x+30-30=2x+30-30

2x=2x

x=x, or...

2x-2x+30=2x-2x+30

30=30

how does the outhor introduce the central idea that there was little information about jupiter on it pays to nail down lawn chai
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

It shows the time scientists used to look for information about Jupiter's climate.

Explanation:

Right at the beginning of the text, the author shows that scientists have spent more than a century researching the reasons that lead Jupiter to have such a strong climate. In this way, the author shows, subjectively, that there was little information about Jupiter in the scientific community, which justifies such a long research.

30+ POINTS WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
vivado [14]

Answer:

1)

y =  \frac{ - 2}{3} x - 6

2) slope is -2/3

Explanation:

1)

10x + 15y =  - 90 \\ 15y =  - 10x - 90 \\ y =  \frac{ - 10}{15} x -  \frac{90}{15}  \\ y  =  \frac{ - 2}{3} x - 6 \\ answer

2)

when any equation is written as

y = mx + c then m is the slope.

above we have calculated that

y =  \frac{ - 2}{3} x - 6

which is in the form of

y = mx + c

where m is -2/3 and c is -6

thus slope is m = -2/3
