Solve each equation or formula for the specified variable.
y= 1/4x -12,for x

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = 1/4x - 12

Adding 12 on both sides

12y = 1/4x

12y/ 1/4 = x

3y = x

the first one, all those points on the line just make a strait line.

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
