X is the number
sum means add

sum of half a number and 4 means
(x/2)+4
result is -16

(x/2)+4=-16
minus 4 both sides
x/2=-20
times 2 both sides
x=-40
the number is -40

If p→qp→q, and q→rq→r, then thats all it says
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Answer: then q→r

Explanation:

If p → q

and q →r , then  you can use the law of transitivity to conclude

q→r.

That is a basic law of sillogisms.

An example will help you to understand the transivity law:

Make p, stand for 3 > 3/4, q stand for 3/4 > 15 / 20, the you can conclude that 3 > 15 / 20.

3 > 3/4

3 /4 > 15 / 20

Then, 3 > 15 /20.

This is, from the fact that you know that 3 is gretar than 3/4 and that 3/4 is greater than 15/20, you can conclude that 3 > 15 / 20. That is transitivity and is a law of logic, which you can use to get conclusions.

Helppppp please will give brainlist ​

Answer:

D or answer 4                   y=-5/2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we can first start of by finding the y-intercept.

Note that when x=0, you can find your y-intercept.

Knowing this, and looking at the table, 7 is the y-intercept because when y=7, x=0.

So we can eliminate choices 'a' and 'c,' or answers 1 and 3, because they have the y-intercept as -7, when it's just 7.

Please know that in the equation:

y = mx + b

y = y-coordinate or any given point

mx = slope

b = y-intercept

Now we must find slope

To find the slope we need to do:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) or rise/run

The two coordinates I choose to use is (0, 7) and (6, -8).

(-8 - 7) / (6 - 0) = -5/2

-5/2 is the slope

Finally, look for an equation that has 7 as the y-intercept and -5/2 as the slope.

Answer: D or answer 4
