We can say that x is the largest number.
So the sum is x + (x - 1) + (x - 2) + (x - 3) + (x - 4) = -5
Now solve for x:
x + x + x + x + x - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 = -5
5x - 10 = -5
5x = 5
x = 1
So the largest number is 1.
Check: 1 + 0 + -1 + -2 + -3 = -2 + -3 = -5 so 1 is correct.
Answer:
The slope is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
All y-values are equal to 5 meaning the graph is a straight horizontal line. Slope is the rate at which a graph increases or decreases. Seeing as this graph doesn't do so, the slope is 0.
Answer:
The worker's pay is $795.50.
Step-by-step explanation:
The worker gets paid $18.50 for the first 40 hours of work. The worker works 46 hours. 18.50 • 40 = 740. He worked 6 hours overtime. $18.50 ÷ 2 = $9.25. $9.25 • 6 = $55.50.
$740 + $55.50= $795.50

Answer:
(x, y) = (5, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the second equation to substitute for y in the first.
x = 17 -4(x -2)
5x = 25 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 4x
x = 5
y = 5 -2 = 3
The solution is (x, y) = (5, 3).
To solve for the perimeter first figure out the length and width from the formula of area for the rectangle
A = LxW
A = (14-X)•X
L = (14-X)
W = X
P = 2L + 2W
P = 2(14-X) + 2(X)
P = 28 - 2X + 2X
P = 28.
The perimeter of the rectangle is A. 28.
