Start by distributing the 8: 
-160=22+(8)(3p)+(8)(-4)

Now we have:
-160=22+24p-32


Combine like terms: 
-160=(24p)+(22-32)


Now we have:
-160=24p-10


Add 10 to both sides:
24p-10+10=-160+10


Now we have:
24p=-150


Divide both sides by 24: 
24p/24=-150/24

Final answer: p=-25/4

-160=22+8(3p-4)
Use distributive property
-160=22+24p-32
-160=24p-10
Add 10 for both side
-160+10=24p-10+10
-150=24p
Divided 24 for both side
-150/24=24p/24
p=-6.25
Check:
-160=22+8(3p+4)
-160=22+8[3(-6.25)-4]
-160=22+8(-18.75-4)
-160=22+8(-22.75)
-160=22-182
-160=-160. As a result, x=-6.25. Hope it help!

The population in the town of Huntersville is presently 38,300. The town grows at an annual rate of 1.2%. Find the population of
Basile [38]
Hi there! So the situation that we are talking about for this is compounding, because the population is growing.. The formula for compounding something is P(1 + r)^t, with P representing the initial amount, r representing the rate, and t representing the time in years. First off, let's add the rate into 1. 1.2% is 0.012 in decimal form. 1 + 0.012 is 1.012. Now, because we are looking for the population after 4 years. We raise 1.012 to the 4th power. 1.012^4 is 1.04887093274. It's a long decimal, but do not delete this number from your calculator. Now, we multiply that number by 38,300 in order to get 40,171.7567238 or 40,172 when rounded to the nearest whole number. There. The population of Huntersville will be 40,172 people in 4 years.

How to simplify please help
Luda [366]

Okay, the image is a little tough to see, but I believe it looks something like this:

(5² -10 / 17 - 3 * 4) -1

The first step [remember PEMDAS] is parentheses

Next comes Exponents:

(25 - 10 / 17 - 3 * 4) -1

Then Multiplication:

(25 - 10 / 17 - 12) - 1

Then Division [which we can't do yet since it isn't fully simplified], so we skip to Addition... nothing again, then subtraction.

(15 / 5) - 1

Then we can divide:

(3) - 1

Then subtract!

2

The answer to your problem is 2.

Hope that helps!

Help me on number problem 4 please
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

y = -1/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you are finding the perpendicular slope, you need to find the negative reciprocal of the original line, which would be -1/4. You then use point slope form to find the y-intercept with the slope and given point:

y - 5 = -1/4(x + 8). That equals to y = -1/4x + 3.

So the equation of this line is y = -1/4x + 3.
