Answer:-2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Now the above equation can be rewritten as 5y= -2x+1

Dividing this expression through by 5, we have 5y/5 = -2x/5 + 1/5

y= (-2/5)x + 1/5

Comparing with the general equation of a line;

y = mx + c; m= gradient; C= constant along the y-axis

m= -2/5

Answer:

x ≈ 8.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin60° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{x}{10}$

Multiply both sides by 10

10 × sin60° = x, thus

x ≈ 8.66 ( to 2 dec. places )

It decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say that it was 10 / 40, which is 10 divided by 40, 0.25.

Now, it has increased to twice the amount of that.

1 / 80, 10 divided by 80, which is 0.125

So, it decreases.

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so it asks in all, which means morning distance + afternoon distance

We got the afternoon distance so now we have to find the morning one

it says the afternoon distance (6), is 25% less than the morning distance.

Which means the afternoon distance is 0.75 of the morning distance.

so 0.75x = 6, x = 6/0.75 = 8

Then you add 8 to 6 to get 14
