Answer:
x = 37/3 = 12.333
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
Pulling out like terms :
1.1 Pull out like factors :
15x - 185 = 5 • (3x - 37)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
Equations which are never true :
2.1 Solve : 5 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
2.2 Solve : 3x-37 = 0
Add 37 to both sides of the equation :
3x = 37
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
x = 37/3 = 12.333
Answer:
The original price of the item is $28.
Step-by-step explanation:
So to find the original price, we have to divide the sale price by the result of one minus the discount in percentage form.
So:
First convert 25% to a decimal, 0.25.
OP(original price) = 21 ÷ 1 - 0.25 =
1 - 0.25 = 0.75
21 ÷ 0.75 = 28.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok so you are given the values of the slope-intercept form with m being the slope and b being the y-intercept. So since b is equal to -1 you want to plot a point at (0, -1) since that is the y-intercept (when x = 0). The next thing you want to do is look at the slope, which is essentially saying each time x increases by 5 the y-value decreases by 4 or in other words rise/run which is negative which is why you're going down. So from the point (0, -1) go forward 5 units and go down 4 units which should lead you to (5, -5) and the third point you can plot is by going backwards instead of forwards. So instead of every time x increases by 5 y decreases by 4 you're going to do the inverse. Every time x decreases by 5, y is going to increase by 4. So by doing this from the y-intercept (0, -1) you should go backwards 5 units and up 4 units which should lead you to (-5, 3). And then now just draw a line that goes through all those three points. Hope that helps :)
