Answer:
x = 1.875
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Distribute</u>
1/2x + 3/2(x + 1) - 1/4 = 5
1/2x + 3/2x + 3/2 - 1/4 = 5
<u>Step 2: Combine like terms</u>
4/2x + 6/4 - 1/4 = 5
2x + 5/4 = 5
<u>Step 3: Subtract 5/4 from both sides</u>
2x + 5/4 - 5/4 = 5 - 5/4
2x = 3.75
<u>Step 4: Divide both sides by 2</u>
2x / 2 = 3.75 / 2
x = 1.875
Answer: x = 1.875
If it's 10.75 for one month, and there are 66 months in 5 and a half years, 10.75 x 66 = $907.50
Answer:
that looks hard
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y= -3x-20
Step-by-step explanation:
°First find the gradient between the two points
Gradient= - 3
°Using the formula y= mx+c substitute the gradient into the equation. You'll get something like this: y=-3x+c
°Substitute the point (-8;4) in the above equation. You'll get something like this : 4=-3(-8) +c
°Calculate the value of c. It'll give you c=-20
°Substitute c=-20 in the equation
Final answer is y= - 3x-20
