Answer:
The initial value is the y value when x is zero. Look at the table to help you determine the y value when x is zero and that is your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 were called on Friday.
Then the each of the 3 called 3 others which all equals to 9, since 3*3 is 9.
Now, each of the 9 called 3 others on Sunday which altogether equals 27, since 9*3 is 27. Therefore, the answer is 27.
Every time the word each is used in a math problem, that would mean that you need to multiply something. And that's what happened here
Answer:
x = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
7x + 156 = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
156 + 7x + -9x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 7x + -9x = -2x
156 + -2x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
156 + -2x = 184 + 0
156 + -2x = 184
Add '-156' to each side of the equation.
156 + -156 + -2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 156 + -156 = 0
0 + -2x = 184 + -156
-2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 184 + -156 = 28
-2x = 28
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -14
Simplifying
x = -14
