Answer:

3x + y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

given

3x + y = - 12 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

y = - 3x - 12 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 1, 5 ) into the partial equation

5 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 3 = 2

y = - 3x + 2 ← equation in slope- intercept form

add 3x to both sides )

3x + y = 2 ← equation in standard form

Answer:

(<) this means less than

(>) this means greater than

So since the question doesn't say anything about -4°C we can automatically cross out A and B

They are both negative! but when you have a negative. Its going to be less than a positive

So this means 4°C is greater than -5°C

or in other words

D.) 4°C > -5°C

hope this helps!

A sweater was on sale at %40 off the regular price. Ella saved $20 by buying the sweater on sale. What was the regular price of

Artyom0805 [142]

so she saved $20 and that was 40% of the regular price, let's say the regular price is "x".

if 20 is 40%, what is "x" or namely the 100%?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount0&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 20&40\\ x&100 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{20}{x}=\cfrac{40}{100}\implies \cfrac{20}{x}=\cfrac{2}{5}\implies 100=2x \\\\\\ \cfrac{100}{2}=x\implies 50=x$
