X = 2y + 5
(x + 2y + 5) - 10 = 22
(2y + 5 + 2y + 5) = 4y + 10
(4y + 10) - 10 = 22
4y = 22   y = 5.5
x = 2(5.5) + 5  x = 16
x = 16  y = 5.5

An mp3 player is on sale for 25% off. The original price is $52.60. What is the sale price?
Paha777 [63]
First, you need to find 25% of 52.60

Convert 25% to decimal:
25% = .25

Find 25% by multiplying its decimal equivalent by the sales price.

.25 x 52.60 = 13.15

Next, subtract that amount from 52.60 to find the new sale price.

52.60 - 13.15 = 39.45

The final price is $39.45

Determine the angle at the centre of a circle with radius 6.0 cm for an arc length of 8.0 cm.
sveta [45]

Answer:

Third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember that the formula used to calculate the arc lenght is:

arc\ length=r C

Where "r" is the radius and "C" is the central angle in radians.

You need to solve for "C":

C=\frac{arc\ length}{r}

You know the radius and the arc lenght, therefore, you can substitute values to calculate the central angle in radians. Therefore, this is:

C=\frac{8.0cm}{6.0cm}

C=\frac{4}{3}radians

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to 8x-5y=2 and goes through the point (-5,-2)
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

8x - 5y = - 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 8x - 5y = 2 into this form

Subtract 8x from both sides

- 5y = - 8x + 2 ( divide all terms by - 5 )

y = \frac{8}{5} x - \frac{2}{5} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{8}{5}

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = \frac{8}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (- 5, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = - 8 + c ⇒ c = - 2 + 8 = 6

y = \frac{8}{5} x + 6 ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 5

5y = 8x + 30 ( subtract 5y from both sides )

0 = 8x - 5y + 30 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

8x - 5y = - 30 ← in standard form

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The constants are -15 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Constants are those numerical values that will never change, despite the value of x. The easiest way to find them are by finding those numbers that are not affecting x in any way.
