Distance drove by Lukas on Saturday = (4x - 5) miles

Distance drove by Lukas on Sunday = (3x - 10) miles

To find the difference in miles driven by Lukas = Distance drove by Lukas on Sunday - Distance drove by Lukas on Saturday

Difference in miles driven by Lukas = (3x - 10) - ( 4x - 5)

= 3x -10 - 4x +5

= -x - 5

Difference in miles driven by Lukas = ( - x - 5) miles

4x-5-(3x-10)=4x-5-3x+10=x+5 miles is the difference

juin [17]

Answer: The costs are 8.4% of the total revenue.

The stadium is going to make $750,000 for the naming rights of the stadium. The cost to the stadium is on $63,000.

To find the percent, we have to divide the two values and multiply by 100.

63000 / 750000 x 100 = 8.4%

15. Construct the slope-intercept form equation of the line passing through (-5,23) and (10,-5).

Radda [10]

Answer:

15y = -28 x + 205.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of equation is y = mx + c where m is slope and c is the y intercept.

Now slope of line passing through points (-5, 23) and (10, -5):

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} } = \frac{-5 -23}{10 + 5} = \frac{-28}{15}$

Now equation of line:

y = mx + c

substituting the value of m in above expression,

$y = -\frac{28}{15} x + c$

Now, since the line is passing through the point (-5, 23) therefore, x = -5 and y = 23. By substituting these values in above equation,

$23 = -\frac{28}{15} \times (-5) + c$

$23 = \frac{28}{3} + c$

$c = 23 - \frac{28}{3} = \frac{69 - 28}{3} = \frac{41}{3}$

So equation of line in slope intercept form:

$y = -\frac{28}{15} x + \frac{41}{3}$

Further solving,

15y = -28 x + 205.
