Let the two numbers be 'x' and 'y'.

As given in the question,

y = 2x

Now,

4 + x = y - 6

4 + x = 2x - 6

4 + 6 = 2x - x

10 = x

Therefore the two numbers are:

x = 10

y = 2x = 20

lana66690 [7]
The answer is the temperature goes down 2.8° every hour and the expression is x=-11.2/4 because 4 is how many hours between 6pm and 10pm and its -11.2 because that was how much the temperature dropped from 6pm to 10pm

What is the solution of 6(3-2x)=54?
notka56 [123]
Hello!

You solve this algebraically

6(3 - 2x) = 54

distribute the 6

18 - 12x = 54

Subtract 18 from both sides

-12x = 36

Divide both sides by -12

x = -3

The answer is -3

Hope this helps!

HELP!!!!! ME!!! NEED HELP!
Katena32 [7]
Y = -4x + 2
3x + 2y = 6 (or in y-intercept form y=-3/2x + 3)

2x - y = 7 equals y = 2x -7 in y-intercept form. This means that the line has a positive slope and therefore goes upwards. This cannot be a potential equation because the line shown is clearly pointing downwards.

y=5 indicates that the line is a horizontal line that neither points upwards or downwards. This cannot be a potential equation because the line is pointing downwards. 

The only possible equations left are y= -4x + 2 and 3x + 2y = 6, both of which graph a line pointing downwards because their slopes are negative. Hope this helps!
