Answer: third choice (4 - 9).

Explanation:

1) The first reflection, Ry = - 5, means a reflection is across the line y = - 5

2) Since the point P has y-coordinate - 1, its discance to the line y = - 5 is 4 units (P is located 4 units upper the line y = - 5).

Then, the reflection of the y-coordinate will be 4 units below the line y = - 5, which is -5 - 4 = - 9,

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the image is - 9.

3) The second reflection, Rx = 1, means a reflection across the line x = 1.

4) Since the point P has x-coordinate - 2, its distance to the line x = 1 is 3 units (P is located 3 units to the left of the line x = 1).

Then, the reflection of P will be 3 units to the right of the line x = 1.

That is 1 + 3 = 4.

Therefore, the x-coordinate of the image is 4.

5) You have obtained the x and y - coordinates of the image, x = 4 and y = -9, that is (4, - 9) which is the third choice.

Scott took out a 4-year car loan for $5,500. He paid back a total of $7,370. What interest rate did he pay for this loan?

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Amount of car loan taken by Scott = $5500
Amount of loan paid back by Scott = $7370
Then
Amount of money paid as interest by Scott = (7370 - 5500) dollars
   = 1870 dollars
Then
Percentage of interest given for the car loan = (1870/5500) * 100
   = 1870/55
   = 34 percent
So Scott had to pay a total interest rate of 34% in the four years.I hope the procedure is simple enough for you to understand and solve future problems.

the larger of two number is nine more than four times the smaller number. the sum of the two numbers is fifty-nine. find the two

VLD [36.1K]

This is solved by setting up two equations and then using one to answer the other.
The first step (use what is given to set up the two separate equations)
We are looking for two numbers, let us call them X and Y.
We are told that X + Y = 59
We are also told that (9 more than) 9+ (4times the smaller number) 4Y is the bigger number X
Then we combine that into 9+4Y=X
so we now have two separate equations and we can use one to solve the other. Everywhere we have X in the first equation, we will fill in with the second equation
(9+4Y) +Y = 59 [then combine like terms]
9+5Y=59 [subtract 9 from both sides]
5Y=50 [divide both sides by 5 to isolate the Y]
Y=10 [now plug this into either equation to solve for X]
9+4(10)=X
9+40=X
49=X and 10=Y

Solution of y - x < -3

devlian [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality y - x < -3 should be solved for y, as follows:

Add x to both sides, obtaining:

y < x - 3

Note that this y < x - 3 has the form y = mx + b, which represents a straight line. In this case the straight line would be y = x - 3, meaning that the slope of this line is 1 and the y-intercept is -3.

Because y < x - 3 involves the inequality symbol <, draw a dashed line, not a solid line. The solution set consists of all points on the graph BELOW this dashed line y < x - 3.
