Equation parallel to y = -x is y=-x+k
so 4.5 = -7 + k so k - 11.5
Equation is y = -x + 11.5
Answer:
5.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the interest rate, use the equation: I = prt
I = Interest = $6,600
p = principal = $15,000
r = rate = unknown
t = time = 8 years
Now plug the numbers into the equation.
6,600 = 15,000 * r * 8
6,600 = 120,000 * r
Now isolate the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by 120,000.
0.055 = r
Now change the rate to a percent by moving the decimal point 2 digits to the right.
5.5% = r OR r = 5.5%
(-8) - 3y= 25
-8-3y= 25
move -8 to the other side
sign changes from -8 to +8
-8+8-3y=25+8
-3y= 33
divide both sides by -3 to get y by itself
and to get +y
-3y/-3= 33/-3
Answer:
y= -11
