Answer:

The justification is mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

\frac{9x}{4}=-9

Multiply both sides by 4 ( multiplicative property of equality ),

\frac{9x}{4}\times 4 = -9\times 4

9x=-36

Divide both sides by 9 ( division property of equality )

\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{-36}{9}

x=-4

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

5,340

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there:)

Amount invested in stock

=5000×0.6=3000

Amount invested in a saving account

5000-3000=2000


The stock increases 9% in the first year

3,000×(1+0.09)=3,270

and loses 4% of its value the second year

3,270×(1−0.04)=3,139.2

Amount of a saving account after two years

2,000×(1+0.049)^(2)=2,200.8


the total amount gained during the 2 years

3,139.2+2,200.8=5,340...answer


Hope it helps

A rectangular garden has a width that is 8 feet less than twice the length. Find the dimensions if the perimeter is 20 feet.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

length = 6 feet

width = 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the dimensions of the rectangle, you can set up a variable and an expression that will equal the perimeter of the figure.  Given l = length, width is '8 feet less than twice the length' or w = 2l - 8.

The general formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:

2w + 2l = P, where w = width and l = length

Using the variable and expression from above and the perimeter of 20 feet:

2(2l - 8)+ 2l = 20

distribute: 4l - 16 + 2l = 20

combine like terms: 6l - 16 = 20

add 16 to both sides: 6l - 16 + 16 = 20 + 16 or 6l = 36

divide and solve for 'l':  6l/6 = 36/6, or l = 6 feet

solve for 'w':  w = 2(6) - 8 or w = 12 - 8 = 4 feet
