Two thirds of a number decreased by six is two. what is the number?

Kisachek [45]

Answer: The number is: " 12 ".

____________________________________
Let "x" represent "the unknown number" (for which we wish to solve.

The expression:

$\frac{2}{3}$ x − 6 = 2 ; Solve for "x" ;
_______________________________________________
Method 1)

Add "6" to EACH SIDE of the equation;
_______________________________________________
→ $\frac{2}{3}$ x − 6 + 6 = 2 + 6 ;

to get:

→ $\frac{2}{3}$ x = 8 ;
______________________________________________
Multiply each side of the equation by " $\frac{3}{2}$ " ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation ; and to solve for "x" ;
______________________________________________
→ $\frac{3}{2}$ * $\frac{2}{3}$ x = 8 * $\frac{3}{2}$ ;

→ x = 8 * $\frac{3}{2}$ ;

= $\frac{8}{1}$ * $\frac{3}{2}$ ;

= $\frac{8*3}{1*2}$ ;

= $\frac{24}{2}$ ;

= 12 .
______________________________________________
x = 12 .
______________________________________________
Method 2)
______________________________________________
$\frac{2}{3}$ x − 6 = 2 ; Solve for "x" ;

Add "6" to EACH SIDE of the equation;
_______________________________________________
→ $\frac{2}{3}$ x − 6 + 6 = 2 + 6 ;

to get:
→ $\frac{2}{3}$ x = 8 ;
______________________________________________
Multiply each side of the equation by "3" ; to get rid of the "fraction" ;
 → 3 * $\frac{2}{3}$ x = 8 * 3 ;
→ $\frac{3}{1}$ * $\frac{2}{3}$ x = 8 * 3 ;
→ $\frac{3*2}{1*3}$ x = 8 * 3
→ $\frac{6}{3}$ x = 24 ;

→ 2x = 24 ;

→ Divide each side of the equation by "2" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" :

2x / 2 = 24 / 2 ;

x = 12 .
__________________________________________________
Method 3).
__________________________________________________
$\frac{2}{3}$ x − 6 = 2 ; Solve for "x" ;
_______________________________________________
Add "6" to EACH SIDE of the equation;
_______________________________________________
→ $\frac{2}{3}$ x − 6 + 6 = 2 + 6 ;

to get:

→ $\frac{2}{3}$ x = 8 ;
______________________________________________
Now, divide each side of the equation by " $\frac{2}{3}$ " ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
___________________________________________________
{ $\frac{2}{3}$ x } / { $\frac{2}{3}$ } = 8 / { $\frac{2}{3}$ } ;

to get: x = 8 / { $\frac{2}{3}$ } ;

= 8 * ( $\frac{3}{2}$ ;

= $\frac{8}{1}$ * $\frac{3}{2}$ ;

= $\frac{8*3}{1*2}$ ;

= $\frac{24}{2}$ ;

= 12 ;
___________________________________________
x = 12 .
___________________________________________
NOTE: Variant: (in "Methods 2 & 3") :
___________________________________________
At the point where:
___________________________________________
= 8 * ( $\frac{3}{2}$ ) ;

= $\frac{8}{1}$ * $\frac{3}{2}$ ;
__________________________________________
We can cancel out the "2" to a "1" ; and we can cancel out the "8" to a "4" ;
__________________________________________
{since: "8÷2 = 4" ; and since: "2÷2 =1" } ;
__________________________________________
and we can rewrite the expression:
__________________________________________
$\frac{8}{1}$ * $\frac{3}{2}$ ;
__________________________________________
as: $\frac{4}{1}$ * $\frac{3}{1}$ ;
__________________________________________
which equals:
__________________________________________
→ $\frac{4*3}{1*1}$ ;

= $\frac{12}{1}$ ;

= 12 .
__________________________________________
x = 12 .
__________________________________________
Answer: The number is: " 12 ".

Please please please I beg someone please help me with this!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look at my attachment to see the four functions on the graph.

f --> g . . . . . shift the graph down one unit

f --> h . . . . . shift down 2 units, and double the slope

f --> d . . . . . shift up 2 units, and reduce the slope by half

Formula in the form y=mx+b models the value, y, of a new car x years after the initial purchase in 2010. Would you expect b to b

Tom [10]

Answer:

positive

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line modeling the price of a car over the years from its initial purchase is to be a line with negative slope "m" due to the fact that the price of the car drops with the years, but for sure the price at the time of purchase (which is the zero in the horizontal x-axis) should be the largest value the car would have (the purchase price) This is actually the y-intercept "b", clearly a positive number.
