Answer: x=1/4y + -3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Slope= -5/8
y-intercept = -1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
ALWAYS make the equation "y=mx+c"
where m = slope/gradient and c = y-intercept
Now rearrange the equation:
5x+8y=-1
8y=-5x-1
y=-5x/8-1/8
Slope= -5/8
y-intercept = -1/8
ax² + bx + c = 0
x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac))/2a
First, rewrite the first equation so that the first coefficient is 1. Divide everything by a.
(ax² + bx + c = 0)/a =
x² + (b/a)x + (c/a) = 0
Isolate (c/a) by subtracting (c/a) from both sides
x² + (b/a)x + (c/a) (-(c/a) = 0 (- (c/a)
x² + (b/a)x = 0 - (c/a)
Add spaces
x² + (b/a)x = -c/a
Take 1/2 of the middle term's coefficient and square it. Remember that what you add to one side, you add to the other.
x² + (b/a)x + (b/2a)² = -c/a + (b/2a)²
Simplify the left side of the equation.
x² + (b/a)x + (b/2a)² = (x + (b/2a))²
(x + b/2a))² = ((b²/4a²) - (4ac/4a²)) -> ((b² - 4ac)/(4a²))
Take the square root of both sides of the equation
√(x + b/2a))² = √((b²/4a²) - (4ac/4a²))
x + b/(2a) = (±√(b² - 4ac)/2a
Simplify. Isolate the x.
x = -(b/2a) ± (∛b² - 4ac)/2a = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac))/2a

well, a negative plus a negative always will be a negative
example:
-1+-1=-2
Answer:
(a) What is the median cost?
12-78
(b) Is there a mode? If so, what is it?
No there isn't
(c) What is the difference between the most expensive and least expensive lamps?
12,75-78
(d) How many lamps cost more than $20 but less than $40?
5
(e) What is the ratio of lamps that cost less than $40 to lamps that cost more than $40? Write the ratio in the simplest form.
{for less} - (12,49) {for more} - (49,78)
