The resulting equation will represent a line whose slope is 1/2 times the slope of the line

<h3>How to determine the slope of the new line?</h3>

The equation of the line is given as:

y = 3x/a + 5

The constant a is a positive constant.

So, when the value of a in the equation is doubled, we have:

y = 3x/2a + 5

A linear equation is represented as

y = mx + b

Where m represents the slope.

So, we have:

m1 = 3/a

m2 = 3/2a

Substitute m1 = 3/a in m2 = 3/2a

m2 = 1/2 * m1

Hence, the resulting equation will represent a line whose slope is 1/2 times the slope of the line

Someone please help and explain it would really help
Vaselesa [24]

So when you're solving for x here and distribute 8 on the right side, it would look like this:

8x+47=8(x+5)\\ \\ 8x+47=8x+40

Now in order to solve for x, we know we have to get all the x's on one side of the equal sign. Let's get all our x's to the left side. Since the right side has a positive 8x, you need to subtract 8x on the right. But whatever you do to one side you must do to the other. So since we are subtracting 8x on the right, we need to do that on the left.

But we can't! Since both sides will cancel out to zero before x can be solved.

Therefore the answer is 0.

Hope that helps!

No, it does not seem reasonable. The quarterly statement reports an increase of $47, so it would be a positive rate of return on the investment instead of a negative rate.
