Answer:

y = - 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 and c = - 5, thus

y = - 2x - 5 ← equation of line

Factor (z-5)(z+4)=52

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Good Afternoon! Here is your answer step by step!

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

(z−5)(z+4)=52

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

z2−z−20=52

Step 2: Subtract 52 from both sides.

z2−z−20−52=52−52

z2−z−72=0

Step 3: Factor left side of equation.

(z+8)(z−9)=0

Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.

z+8=0 or z−9=0

z=−8 or z=9

Answer:

z=−8 or z=9

Have a blessed day! ❤

Kelko will rent a car for the weekend. She can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of $57 and cost an add

Delicious77 [7]

Questions (contd)

(a) For what amount of driving do the two plans cost the same?

(b) What is the cost when the two plans cost the same?

Answer:

(a) 100 miles

(b) $65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Plan 1:

$Initial\ Fee = \$57$

$Additional = \$0.08$ per mile

Plan 2:

$Initial\ Fee = \$50$

$Additional = \$0.10$ per mile

Solving (a): Number of miles when both plans are equal

Represent the distance with x and the cost with y

So:

Plan 1:

$y = 57 + 0.08 * x$

Plan 2:

$y = 50 + 0.10 * x$

To solve (a), we equate both plans together; i.e.

$y = y$

$57 + 0.08x = 50 + 0.10x$

Collect Like Terms

$0.08x - 0.10x= 50 - 57$

$-0.02x= -2$

Solve for x

$x = -2/-0.02$

$x = 100$

Hence, 100 mile would cost both plans the same

Solving (b): Cost when both plans are the same:

In this case, we simply substitute 100 for x in any of the y equation.

$y = 57 + 0.08 * x$

$y = 57 + 0.08 * 100$

$y = 57 + 8$

$y = 65$

<em>Hence, the amount is $65</em>

What are the steps to this problem (and the answer?)

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

$(25 {x}^{2} + 20xy + 16 {x}^{2} )(5x - 4y) = \\ 125 {x}^{3} + 100 {x}^{2} y + 80x {y}^{2} - 100 {x}^{2} y \\ - 80x {y}^{2} - 64 {y}^{3} = \\ 125 {x}^{3} - 64 {y}^{3} \\ please \: give \: brainliest$

25 POINTS!! HELP ASAP PLEASE!!!

gladu [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Stem is the first digit and the leaf is the last digit.

Below the table is explained that 1 l 7 is 1.7 because it also could mean 17. So with that clear the terms from the Stem l Leaf are as follow:

1 combined with 3, 7 and 7:

1.3, 1.7 and 1.7

2 combined with 6, 8 and 8:

2.6, 2.8, 2.8

3 combined with 5 and 7:

3.5 and 3.7

All the terms:

1.3, 1.7, 1.7, 2.6, 2.8, 2.8, 3.5, 3.7

Answer:

y = 1x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The equation formula for this scenario is y = mx + b</u>

m = slope

b = y-intercept

To find the slope, pick two points. I picked (2,9) and (4,11).

Subtract 11 from 9, you'll get 2.

Subtract 4 from 2, you'll get 2.

2/2 equals 1. The slope (m) = 1

To find the b, y-intercept, plot the points on a graph and see if the linear line across the y-intercept. For this case, the y-intercept is 7.

The equation is: y = 1x + 7
