Fourteen less than three fourths of a number is negative eight. Find the number

Mathematics

Lapatulllka [165]3 years ago

The word "is" in this kind of problem typically means "=", so we know that something =-8. Since we're finding the number, we should start with the closest thing in the phrase given to that number. In this case, it's 3/4x. Finally, since we have the "14 less than", we need to add that in. Your answer is:

3/4x-14=-8. Now we can just solve!
       +14   +14

3/4x=6.
*4/3   *4/3

x=8.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

<u>This assume the equation is 35y = mx + c, and that r is meant to be x.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

35y = mx + c

35y = -2(-7) - 3

35y = 14 - 3

35y = 11

How do I graph the parabola?
scoundrel [369]
First of all, find a program or a calculator that will give you the answer. Then you'll know how to make your table. I recommend Desmos. I have inserted the final graph for you.

Make up a table for this graph. Put the lowest point as the central entry in your graph.

x      y
-4
-3
-2
-1
0
Now fill in the y values. 

x       y
-4      1
-3       -3.5
-2        -5
-1       -3.5
0         1

You can use the outline of the parabola and then mark the outline with the points in the table.

Angie and kenny play online video games. Angie biys 1 software package and 4 months of game play. Kenny buys 1 software package
Elenna [48]

Answer:

1 month of game play will cost $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the cost of one month of game play.

From the question, we know the following;

Angie bought 1 software package and 4 months of game play

while

Kenny bought 1 software package and 1 month of game play.

The total packages and months bought will be;

2 packages and 5 months of game play

From the question, we are told that 1 month of game play is $35, so 2 months of game play will be 2 * $35 = $70

So the amount remaining for the 5 months will be; $130 - $70 = $60

So if 5 months cost $60, it means one month will be $60/5 = $12
