Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line that passes through the points (-5,0) and (-1, -8). Notice how x increases 4 units from -5 to -1 and y decreases 8 units.

Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -8/4, or m = -2.

Another way to look at this:

change in y - 8 - 0

m = -------------------- = ------------ = -2

change in x -1 - (-5)

Please note: m=-1 - (-5) = 45

8 = -2 is not correct; 8 cannot equal -2.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 sandwich is 6.25 (because 31.25/5)

2 sandwiches is 12.5

3 sandwiches are 18.75

4 sandwiches are 25

5 sandwiches are 31.25

6 sandwiches are 37.5

Amy - 8s + 12

8(6.25) +12 = 62

Amy paid $62.

Bob - 8(s + 2)

8(6.25 + 2) = 66

Bob pays $66.

Cathy - 4(2s + 3)

4(2 x 6.25 + 3) = 62

Cathy paid $62.

Erika is working on solving the exponential equation 50x = 17; however, she is not quite sure where to start. using complete sen

The equation be 50x = 17 then the value of x = 17/50.

<h3>How to find the value of x?</h3>

To estimate the value of x, bring the variable to the left side and bring all the remaining values to the right side. Simplify the values to estimate the result.

Let the equation be 50x = 17

Diving both sides of the equation by 50, we get

50x/50 = 17/50

x = 17/50

Therefore, the value of x = 17/50.
