Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

16/20 reduces down to 2/5

set 2/5=x/80

cross multiply 160=5x

divide 32=x

check 2/5=32/80

32/80; 16/40; 8/20; 4/10; 2/5

yay 32 is the answer good luck :)

Rewrite the equation 2y - 4x = 10 in function notation where f(x)= y.<br> f(x)=

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Answer:

f(x) = 5 + 2x

y+4x^2-1 is the same as y=-4x^2+1, then replace y with f(x); f(x)=-4x^2+1. After you do that, replace x with 2; f(2)=-4(2)^2+1. 2^2=4, 4 times -4=-16, -16+1=-15. So f(2)=-15.

Which of the following best describes the solution to the system of equations below?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer: OPTION A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

Solve for y from each equation:

$\left \{ {{5y=-4x+7} \atop {10y=-8x+14}} \right.\\\\\left \{ {{y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}} \atop {y=\frac{-8}{10}x+\frac{14}{10}}} \right.\\\\\left \{ {{y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}} \atop {y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}}} \right.$

As you can see the slope and the y-intercept of each equation are equal, this means that both are the exact same line. Therefore, you can conclude that the system has infinitely many solutions.
