Answer:
x=41
Step-by-step explanation:
0.25(x-13)=7
We move all terms to the left:
0.25(x-13)-(7)=0
We multiply parentheses
0.25x-3.25-7=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
0.25x-10.25=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
0.25x=10.25
x=10.25/0.25
x=41
Answer:
y=-3/4x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 3x from both sides: 4y=-3x+12
Divide both sides by 4: y=-3/4y+3
Answer: The equation is y = -6*x
Step-by-step explanation:
I suppose that we want to find the equation for a line that passes through the point (-1, 6) and the origin (remember that the origin is the point (0,0))
A general linear equation is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
If this line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then the slope of the line is equal to:
a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Now we know that our line passes through the points (0, 0) and (-1, 6), then the slope is:
a = (6 - 0)/(-1 - 0) = 6/-1 = -6
Then our equation is something like:
y = -6*x + b
To find the value of b we can use the fact that this line passes through the point (0, 0).
This means that when x = 0, y is also equal to zero.
If we replace these values in the equation we get:
0 = -6*0 + b
0 = b
Then our equation is:
y = -6*x
Given:
8 2/3 hours per month
12 months in a year.
Number of hours she play soccer in a year.
8 2/3 must be converted to improper fraction.
((8*3)+2)/3 = 26/3
26/3 * 12 = (26 * 12)/3 = 312/3 = 104
Yolanda spends 104 hours in a year playing soccer.
9/16 is the original fraction. 9+3 = 12 and 16-1 =15. 12/15 = 4/5
