Hello there.

<span>One number is 4 less than a second number. twice the second number is 16 less than 5 times the first. find the two numbers
</span>
Answer: Call the first number x.
First number is x.
Second number is x + 4.
This is the equation presented.
2(x + 4) = 5x - 16.
2x + 8 = 5x - 16.
16 + 8 = 5x - 2x
24 = 3x
x = 8.
x + 4 = 12.
The two numbers are 8 and 12.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^

A pair of jeans that originally costs $42 is 25% off.Find the sale price.ASAP PLZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anon25 [30]
Original Price = $42
Discount = 25%   ---------> 25% is discount because it says 25% <span><u />off!!!</span>
Now,
Sale price = original price - discount % of original price  
                 = 42 - 25% of 42 
                 = 42 - (25/100) * 42   
                 = 42 - 0.25 * 42 
                 = 42 - 10.5 
                 = 31.5

So, the sale price is $31.5

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4.2) and (-16, -10)?
sergij07 [2.7K]

Given:

A line passes through the points (4,2) and (-16, -10).

To find:

The slope of the line.

Solution:

Slope Formula:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

A line passes through the points (4,2) and (-16, -10). So, slope of the line is

m=\dfrac{-10-2}{-16-4}

m=\dfrac{-12}{-20}

m=\dfrac{3}{5}

Therefore, the slope of the line is \dfrac{3}{5}.
