Answer:
2x - 0.4x ;
8x/5 ;
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of miles = x
Arlene:
Double number of miles = 2 * x = 2x
Subtract 20% of the result :
2x - 20% of 2x ;
2x - 0.4x
Raul:
Divides Number of miles by 5 ; x / 5
Multiplies result by 8 ;
8 * (x/5) = 8x /5
To know if expressions are equivalent :
Let x = 10 miles
Using Arlene's expression:
2x - 0.4x
x = 10
2(10) - 0.4(10) = 16
Using Raul's expression :
8x / 5
(8*10) / 5
80/5
= 16
Since they give the same result, we can conclude that the expression are equivalent
Answer:
Graph (C)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find whether the graph\table represents a relationship or a function we have to analyze the input-output values given.
Graph A.
In this graph for every input value (x-value) there are two output values (y-values).
For x = -2, y = -2, 2
So the graph doesn't represent a function.
Graph B.
For every x value there are two y-values
For x = -5, y = -3, 3
So the graph doesn't represent a function.
Graph C.
For every input value there is a different y-value.
Therefore, graph represents a function.
Graph D.
In this graph for x = 3, y = 1, 2, 3, 4
For one value of x, there are four values of y.
Therefore, graph doesn't show the relationship.
Answer
2x - 7 = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(y - 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
"7 less than y" means just that.... that you have 7 fewer units then the value of y.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to determine the information you're being asked for, you need to complete the square on that quadratic. The first step is to move the constant over to the other side of the equals sign:

Here would be the step where, if the leading coefficient isn't a 1, you'd factor it out. But ours is a 1, so we're good there. Now take half the linear term (the term with the single x on it), square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is a -2. Half of -2 is -1, and -1 squared is +1. We add +1 to both sides giving us this:

Now we'll clean it up a bit. The right side becomes a 4, and the left side is written as its perfect square binomial, which is the whole reason we did this. That binomial is
(set equal to the 4 here). Now we'll move the 4 back over and set the whole thing back equal to y:

From this it's apparent what the vertex is: (1, -4),
the axis of symmetry is x = 1, and
the y-intercept is found by setting the x's equal to 0 in the original equation and solving for y. So the y-intercept is (0, -3).
Your choice for the correct answer is the very last one there.
