Answer: The answer is x = 19.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a flower pot has a base with six equal sides of measurement (x - 6) units. We are to find the value of the unknown quantity 'x' if the perimeter of the base is 78 units.

We know that the perimeter of a polygon is given by the sum of the lengths of all the sides of the polygon.

Since each side of the six-sided base is (x - 6) units, so its perimeter will be

6\times(x-6)~\textup{units}.

According to the question, we have

6(x-6)=78\\\\\Rightarrow x-6=13\\\\\Rightarrow x=19.

Thus, the value of 'x' is 19 units.

Whatever% of anything is just (whatever/100) * anything.

so 56% of 75 mates like it, how much is 56% of 75?  well is just (56/100) * 75, namely 42.

and 80% of 60 relatives like it as well, how much is 80% of 60?  well, is just (80/100) * 60, namely 48.

how many more?  well, 48 - 42.

6q + 9 ≤ 9 and 6q + 9 ≥ −9
Ilya [14]
Hello there!

6q + 9 ≤ 9

Start by subtracting 9 from both sides

6q + 9 - 9 ≤ 9 - 9

6q ≤ 0

Then divide both sides by 6

6q/6 ≤ 0/6

q ≤ 0

--------------

The second equation
6q + 9 ≥ -9

Start by subtracting 9 from both sides

6q + 9  - 9 ≥ -9 - 9

6q ≥ -18

Divide both sides by 6

6q/6 ≥ -18/6

q ≥ -3


Good luck with your studies!

SSSSS [86.1K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

First of all let's write the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line, which is:

y=mx+b \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ m: \ slope \\ \\ b: \ y-intercept

So we just need to find m \ and \ b to solve this problem.

Moreover, this problem tells us that Amir drove from Jerusalem down to the lowest place on Earth, the Dead Sea, descending at a rate of 12 meters per minute. So this rate is the slope of the line, that is:

m=-12

Negative slope because Amir is descending. So:

y=-12x+b

To find b, we need to use the information that tells us that he was at sea level after 30 minutes of driving, so this can be written as the point (30,0). Therefore, substituting this point into our equation:

y=-12x+b \\ \\ 0=-12(30)+b \\ \\ 0=-360+b \\ \\ \therefore b=360

Finally, the equation of Amir's altitude relative to sea level (in meters) and time (in minutes) is:

\boxed{y=-12x+360}

Whose graph is shown bellow.
