Four times a number increased by 3 is the same as twice the number increased by 9? I'm horrible at these

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The question says:
4(x) +3 = 2(x) + 9 
so now you need to find x
first you should add -2(x) on both sides of the equation and then add -3 on both sides:
4(x) - 2(x) = 9 - 3 
2(x) = 6
now you can divide both sides by 2:
x = 6/2 
x = 3 :)))
I hope this is helpful
have a nice day
Answer 2
Answer: Four times a number (we are gonna make that be "x") increased by 3 would be 4x+3 it says it is the same as (means it is equal to) twice the number (2x) increased by 9 (+9) so the full equation would be 4x+3=2x+9
You have to solve for the number (x).
4x+3=2x+9
-2x -2x (Have to get the x's to one side)
2x+3=9
-3 -3 (you have to get the numbers on one side too)
2x=6
/2 /2 (to get x alone)
X=3 (the number is 3)

Mother gives birth to a 8 pound baby. Every 4 months, the baby gains 3 pounds.If x is the age of the baby in months, then y is the weight of the baby in pounds.

Find an equation of a line in the form y = mx + b that describes the baby's weight.

Answers

Hello!

The equation, y = mx + b is slope-intercept form. In this equation, m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

If the baby was exactly 8 pounds when it was born, then the y-intercept is (0, 8) because at zero months, the baby was eight pounds. To find the rate of change, we can use the the y-intercept (0, 8), and the weight of the baby at four months, which is (4, 8 + 3) → (4, 11).

Since we have two points, we can use the slope formula ((y_(2)-y_(1))/(x_(2)-x_(1))) to find the rate of change.

(8 -11)/(0-4) = (-3)/(-4) = (3)/(4).

The rate of change is 3/4.

Therefore, the equation that describes the baby's weight is y = 3/4x + 8.

first you put the numbers in place of the letter so it looks like 3(5)-2(3)
now you do 3x times 5 which =15x and do -2y times 3 and you get -6y now it should be this 15-6=9
