First you should rearrange to get it in the form y = mx + c, and you do this by subtracting the 9x from both sides and dividing by 15, which gives you:
y = (-9/15)x + 3
Now you know the y-intercept is 3, so you can mark that on as a point.
Then, to graph the gradient of -9/15, you go along 15 spaces to the right and 9 spaces down, or 15 to the left and 9 spaces up, and you repeat this until you run out of room. Then you just join the dots
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
37.68 is the correct answer
<span>4% is the same as 0.04 </span>
<span>so 0.04 x n = 56 where "n" is some number </span>
<span>0.04n = 56 Divide both sides by 0.04 </span>
<span>n = 1400</span>
Let x = first number and y = second number.
The first statement is expressed as
x*y = 713
The second statement is expressed as
x = y + 9
To find x, use the second equation in terms of y, that is y = x - 9. Then substituting it to the first equation yields
x*(x - 9) = 713
