Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number. The problem statement tells you ...
2/3(3x +6) = 10
2x +4 = 10 . . . . . . use the distributive property
x +2 = 5 . . . . . . . . divide by 2
x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 3
The number is 3.

<em>Comment on the solution</em>
The above shows an "alternative" solution method. The more usual way this might be done is ...
2(3x +6) = 30 . . . . . multiply by 3 to clear fractions
6x +12 = 30 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
6x = 18 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12
x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 6

Answer:
y = (-3/4)x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form of the slope-intercept equatin of a straight line is
y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Substituting -3/4 for m and -5 for b, we get:
y = (-3/4)x - 5
Given:
Arnold has $24 to spend at the movies.
Ticket = $12
Popcorn is double the price of the soda.
The soda and candy bar are same price.
To find:
The price for the soda.
Solution:
Let x be the price of soda.
According to the question,
Price of candy = Price of soda = x
Price of popcorn = 2(price of soda) = 2x
Total amount = Ticket + Popcorn + Soda + Candy




Divide both sides by 4.


Therefore, the price of soda is $3.
The third one is the answer?
