Answer:

The number is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference of twice a number and 12 is 2x - 12.

Multiplying by 5 gives 5(2x - 12)

So 5(2x - 12) = -20

Solving for x

10x - 60 = -20

10x  = -20 + 60 = 40

x = 40/10

x = 4.

Answer:

Not a function

Since x= produces y- -1 and y=-4, the relation (3,-1),(2,5),(4,-6),(3,4),(5,-8) is not a function.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation for the line.
max2010maxim [7]
The answer is C, you can tell because the b=-1, so that eliminates d, then you know the slope is positive because of the direction it goes, so that eliminates a. Then if you look at the slope, it goes up 3 over 1, so that makes the answer C.
