Answer: -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
-3(y + 5) = 15
Reorder the terms:
-3(5 + y) = 15
(5 * -3 + y * -3) = 15
(-15 + -3y) = 15
Solving
-15 + -3y = 15
Solving for variable 'y'.
Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + -3y = 15 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + -3y = 15 + 15
-3y = 15 + 15
Combine like terms: 15 + 15 = 30
-3y = 30
Divide each side by '-3'.
y = -10
Simplifying
well the x would be 2 and the y would be 25 i think
Answer:
(20,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-5,-5).....x1 = -5 and y1 = -5
(10,-2)...x2 = 10 and y2 = -2
slope = (-2 - (-5) / (10- (-5) = (-2 + 5) / (10 + 5) = 3/15 = 1/5
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/5
use either point, I will use (10,-2)...x = 10 and y = -2
now we sub
-2 = 1/5(10) + b
-2 = 2 + b
-2 - 2 = b
-4 = b
so the equation for this line is : y = 1/5x - 4
to find the x intercept, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
y = 1/5x - 4
0 = 1/5x - 4
-1/5x = -4
x = -4 * -5
x = 20.......so ur x intercept is (20,0) <====
2 weeks = 14 days
10 / 14 = 0.71428571428
0.71428571428 * 31 = 22.1428571429
The town received about 22 inches of rain.
If you include the 2 weeks, then it would be 32 inches of rain.
Hope this helps!
