The model that can be used to determine the total amount of prize money based on the value of the first place prize is as follows;

Total amount of price money = 5x - 500

The prices are given to the best 5 acts. The first place wins the most money and each place after that wins $50 less than the previous place. The pattern follows a sequence.

<h3>What is a Sequence?</h3>

Sequence  is a list of things (usually numbers) that are in order. Therefore,

let

the first price = x

The common difference of the sequence would be - 50.

To create a model that can be used to determine the total amount of prize money based on the value of the first place prize can be done as follows;

  • x , x - 50, x - 100, x - 150, x - 200

Therefore,

Total amount of price money = x + x - 50 + x - 100 + x - 150 +  x - 200

Total amount of price money = 5x - 500

Answer:

a 1/ (6^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

6^3 / 6^6

when dividing exponents we can subtract

6^ (3-6)

6^(-3)

negative exponents go from the numerator to the denominator

1/ (6^3) = 1/216 = 6^-3

1/6^2 is not equal

Find equation of a line with the given slope that passes through the given point. Write the equation in the form Ax + By = C.
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

5x + y = -28

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given that a line has a slope of -5 and contains the point (-4, -8)

We want to write the equation of this line in standard form

Standard form is given as ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are free integer coefficients, but a and b cannot be zero, and a cannot be negative

Before we write the equation in standard form however, we need to write it in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope & b is the y intercept

As we are already given the slope, we can immediately plug that in for m in y=mx+b

y=-5x+b

Now to find b:

As the equation passes through the point (-4, -8), we can use its values to help solve for b

Substitute -4 as x and -8 as y:

-8 = -5(-4) + b

Multiply

-8 = 20 + b

Subtract 20 from both sides

-8 = 20 + b

-20  -20

__________

-28 = b

substitute -28 as b

y = -5x - 28

We found the equation in slope-intercept form, but remember, we want it in standard form

In standard form, both x and y are on the same side; so, let's move 5x to the other side; to do this, we need to add 5x to both sides

y = -5x - 28

+5x +5x

_________

5x + y = -28

Hope this helps!

Hey!

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

First Equation:

2x + 3 = -7

2x + 3 - 3 = -7 - 3 (Subtract 7 to both sides)

2x = -10

2x/2 = -10/2 (Divide 2 to both sides)

x = -5

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

Second Equation:

4.5x - 7 = 20

4.5x + (-7) + 7 = 20 + 7 (Add 7 to both sides)

4.5x = 27

4.5x/4.5 = 27/4.5 (Divide 4.5 to both sides)

x = 6

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

Third Equation:

-3x + 7 = 28

-3x + 7 - 7 = 28 - 7 (Subtract 7 to both sides)

-3x/-3 = 21/-3 (Divide -3 to both sides)

x = -7

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

Answers:

2x + 3 = -7 → x = -5

4.5x - 7 = 20 → x = 6

-3x + 7 = 28 → x = -7

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

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
