Answer: It is only the 3rd equation that is a good example to Jeremy's argument. Others are counter examples to Jeremy's argument.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us consider the general linear equation
Y = MX + C
On a coordinate plane, a line goes through points (0, negative 1) and (2, 0).
Slope = ( 0 - -1)/( 2- 0) = 1/2
When x = 0, Y = -1
Substitutes both into general linear equation
-1 = 1/2(0) + C
C = -1
The equations for the coordinate is therefore
Y = 1/2X - 1
Let's check the equations one after the other
y = negative one-half x minus 1
Y = -1/2X - 1
y = negative one-half x + 1
Y = -1/2X + 1
y = one-half x minus 1
Y = 1/2X - 1
y = one-half x + 1
Y = 1/2X + 1
It is only the 3rd equation that is a good example to Jeremy's argument. Others are counter examples to Jeremy's argument.
Answer:
I really don't know! Hope you have a good grade :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
10x + 300 = 800
subtract 300 from both sides
10x = 500
divide each side by 10
x = 50
Answer: (2x-1) (2x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The side of the barn is made of 2 shapes, a triangle and a rectangle. Find the area of each shape, then add together to find the total area.
To find the area of the triangle, we multiply 1/2 x (triangle base x triangle height), we can find the triangle height by subtracting the height on the right by the height on the left, so 26.5-14.5 = 12.5ft.
The area of the triangle is 1/2 x (22.8x12.5) = 142.5 square ft.
The area of the rectangle is calculated by multiplying one side by the other, which is 22.8x14.5 = 330.6 square feet.
The total area of the side of the barn is 330.6 + 142.5 = 473.1 square feet.
Since we now know the area of the side of the barn, we can find the cost of paint needed. A one gallon paint can covers 350 square feet and costs $20, but we need to paint 473.1 square feet so we'll need to buy a second can. This means we can easily paint the side of the barn with 2 cans, costing $40 in paint.
