Question

What is the value of x in the equation -2/3x + 9 =4/3x - 3?

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/3x + 9 =4/3x - 3

-2/3x = 4/3x - 3 - 9

-2/3x - 4/3x = -12

-6/3x = -12

-2x = -12

x = 12 : 2

x = 6

I believe the answer would be A, Chira will have more in her savings than Wyatt in every month.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you would look at the picture, you can see (IF YOU KNOW HOW TO READ A NUMBER LINE) that in 5 months Wyatt saved only $30.75. If you look at the graph where it had chiras savings account information, you can see that in 5 months she saves $48.50. You have to look at the graph and take hers where it has the point on [15] and then the point on [20] you subtract the difference between them both, and then you would just put 2 and 2 together so obviously Wyatt saves less being that he only saves $30.75 and Chira saves $48.50 every 5 months.

I hope this helped :)
