25% is equal to 1/4 so 180 times 3/4 equals $135
Answer: x=-4, y=-7
Problem:
4x-6y = 26
5x-4y=8
You can use substitution or elimination to solve the problem. I’m going to use elimination.
Multiply by -2 => -8x+12y = -52
Multiply by 3 => 15x- 12y = 24
Add those equations together:
7x=-28
x=-4
Plug that into one of the original equations to get y.
4(-4)-6y=26
-16 - 6y=26
-6y=42
y=-7
Check for the other equation to see if this is true. Which in this case it is. So that’s your answer. x=-4, y=-7
The graph of y =8x goes through the origin (0,0) the graph of Y = 8x-1 is displaced on the negative y -axis and goes through the point (0, -1)

Answer:
y +2 = -1/2(x -7)
Step-by-step explanation:
The line PQ has a rise of 6 units for a run of 3 units, so its slope is ...
m = rise/run = 6/3 = 2
A line perpendicular to PQ will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of that, so ...
-1/m = -1/2
We have the slope of the desired line, and a point it needs to pass through, so we can use the point-slope form of the equation of a line.
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
An equation for the desired line is ...
y +2 = -1/2(x -7)

This can be rearranged to other forms.
y = -1/2x +3/2 . . . . . slope-intercept form
x +2y = 3 . . . . . . . . . standard form
