Answer:
x = 2, x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation y = 10 - 9x is a linear equation and the value of either y or x can be found by substituting the given values of either y or x.
given that y = -8, and substituting this into equation y = 10 - 9x,
we have, -8 = 10 - 9x
10 + 8 = 9x
9x = 18; dividing both sides by 9
x = 2
given that y = -26, and substituting this into equation y = 10 - 9x,
we have, -26 = 10 - 9x
10 + 26 = 9x
9x = 36; dividing both sides by 9
x = 4
Answer:
14 ounces of blue paint
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of blue to yellow is 2:7
To solve this problem we can make a proportion:
2/7=x/49
the numerator represents the blue paint, the denominator represents the yellow paint
To solve the proportion you have to cross multiply:
2*49=7*x
x=14
She needs to add 14 oz of blue paint
I hope this helps :)
Actually, the answer is not A, if you're saying A is the first choice above. That's incorrect. You will need to use the Geometric mean for right triangles here to figure out what the value of a is. We will use this form:

. We have a value for YZ of 3; side a is XZ. That means in order to solve this we need WZ, which we can find using pythagorean's theorem. 3^2 + 4^2 = c^2 and 9 + 16 = c^2 and c = 5. Now we fill in accordingly:

. Cross-multiply to get 3XZ=25 and side XZ is

. XZ is 25/3 and YZ is 3, so 25/3 - 3 = XY. That means that XY (side a) = 16/3 or 5 1/3, choice B, or the second one down.
