This equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope.
If y = mx + b is ?// to y = - 3x + 7, that means they have the SAME SLOPE, so
y = - 3x + b. To calculate b, plug in the related value of (2,-4)
- 4 = - 3(2) + b
- 4 = - 6 + b and b = -4 + 6 = +2
Hence the final equation is y = -3x +2
((3x^2)^a - (4y^a)(z^3a))^2
First, expand.
((3x^2)^a - (4y^a)(z^3a)) ((3x^2)^a - (4y^a)(z^3a))
Combine
3^(2a) - x^(4a) - 8 * 3^(2a)x^(2a)y^(a)z^(3a) + 16y^(3a)z^(6a)

Since it's literally cut in half, that means the triangle's area is literally half of the rectangle's area. Therefore, if we write it as
the triangle's area (a)=(1/2)*(b) (the rectangle's area) we can multiply 2 to both sides to get 2*a=b. Since a is (2x+10), we can plug it in and use the distributive property (since we just can't add up variables and integers) to get
2*(2x+10)=4x+20=b
Solution:
According to the problem, the laptop costs $450 less than the desktop. Let x the cost of the laptop, then we get the following equation:

now, the total finance charge of $409 is from 9% of the cost of the laptop and 6.5% of the cost of the desktop. According to this, we get the following equation:

Applying the distributive property, we get:

now, placing like terms on each side of the equation, we get:

this is equivalent to:

solving for x, we get:

this means that:
The cost of the laptop is x = 2450
and
The cost of the desktop is x+450 = 2450 +450 = 2900.
So that, we can conclude that the correct answer is:
Cost of the laptop = 2450
Cost of the desktop =2900.
