123.456...number in the hundredths place is 5
There are 4 hundredths or 4/100
12 - x = 20 - 5x
You see that -x and -5x both have an 'x' variable? This means they are 'like' terms. To get -x to the other side, we must add (if like terms are on opposite sides, do the opposite of what the sign says, e.g. - will be +)
12 = 20 - 4x
Now move 20 to the other side. Remember, do the opposite! Since 20 is positive, we must minus 20 to the other side.
-8 = -4x
To get x by itself, you will need to get rid of the coefficient of -4. -4x basically means -4 times x, so the opposite of that would be divide! Divide by -4
2 = x (Since both sides have a negative, they cancel out to give a positive)
x = 2
Answer:
y = -1/2 x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Which of the following equations describes the line shown below? Check all
that apply.
(-4, 4)
(2, 1)
The standard equation of a line is y = mx,+b
m is the slope
b is he y-inttercept
Get the slope
Slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1
Substitute the coordinate
M = 1-4/2-(-4)
M = -3/6
M = -1/2
Substitute m= -1/2 and (2,1) into y = mx+b
1 = -1/2(2)+b
1 = -1+b
b = 1+1
b=2
Get the equation
Recall y =mx+b
y = -1/2 x + 2
