Answer: Choice A) 8

------------------------------------------------------------------

If you plot all of the points, you'll see they all fall on the same straight line. The slope of this line is m = -4
Each time x increases by 1, y decreases by 4

Going in reverse, if we decrease x by 1, then we increase y by 4
So the pair (x,y) = (1,4) shown in row 2 will lead to (0,8) if we use the trick of increasing y by 4 when decreasing x by 1.

Another way to see this is to use m = -4 with (x,y) = (1,4) and you'll find that b = 8. So the equation of this line is y = -4x+8

Or you can use a graphical method to find the y intercept

Either way, the answer is 8. This is where the graph crosses the y axis.

Which expression is equivalent to (–3y – x) – (5y – 8x)?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

7x-8y

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an expression (-3y-x)-(5y-8x). We are supposed to simplify our given expression.

Using distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac, we will get:

-3y-x-1*5y-1*-8x

-3y-x-5y+8x

Now, let us combine like terms.

-x+8x-5y-3y

7x-8y

Therefore, the simplified form of our given expression would be 7x-8y.

Line A passes through the points (-5, 1) and (5, 11).
11111nata11111 [884]
Line A:m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{11 - 1}{5 - (-5)} = \frac{10}{5 + 5} = \frac{10}{10} = 1
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
 y - 1 = 1(x - (-5))
 y - 1 = 1(x + 5)
 y - 1 = 1(x) + 1(5)
 y - 1 = x + 5
   + 1       + 1
       y = x + 6

Line B:m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} = \frac{20 - (-1)}{-3 - 4} = \frac{20 + 1}{-7} = \frac{21}{-7} = -3
   y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - (-1) = -3(x - 4)
   y + 1 = -3(x) + 3(4)
   y + 1 = -3x + 12
       - 1          -    1
         y = -3x + 11

y = x + 6
y = -3x + 11

     x + 6 = -3x + 11
+ 3x        + 3x
   4x + 6 = 11
         - 6   - 6
         4x = 5
          4     4
           x = 1¹/₄
           y = x + 6
           y = 1¹/₄ + 6
           y = 7¹/₄
     (x, y) = (1¹/₄, 7¹/₄)

The answer is B.

The supplement of the complement of an angle less the complement of an angle exceeds the quotient of the supplement of the angle
djverab [1.8K]

Complement of an angle = 90° - x.

Supplement of the complement of an angle = 180 - (90 - x).

= 180 - 90 + x

= 90 + x

Supplement of the complement of an angle less the complement of an angle = (90 + x) - (90 - x)

= 90 + x - 90 + x

= 2x

Now, the quotient of the supplement of the angle and the number 3 is \frac{180-x}{3}.

It is given that supplement of the complement of an angle less the complement of an angle exceeds the quotient of the supplement of the angle and the number 3 by 73.

Therefore, 2x = \frac{180x}{3} +73

2x=\frac{180-x+219}{3}

Multiply both sides by 3.

6x = 180 - x + 219

= 399 - x

Add x to both sides.

6x + x = 399

7x = 399

Divide both sides by 7.

x = 57

Hence, the required angle = 57°.
