X - the number of pencils
y - the number of pens
She has twice as many pencils as she has pens.
Tom borrows a pen, so she has y-1 pens. Now she has ten less pens than pencils.
Set 2y and y+9 equal to each other:
She has 9 pens.
Answer:
C. –x + 8y = 56
Step-by-step explanation:
Write in standard form.
x − 8
y = −
56
This is a linear function in the slope - intercept form:
y = m x + b and we need a standard form:
a x + b y = c
y = 1/8 x + 7 / * 8 ( we will multiply both sides of equation by 8 )
8 y = x + 56
- x + 8 y = 56 / * ( - 1 )
x - 8 y = - 56
The equation is y = 1/8x + 7
Standard form equation is Ax + By = C, where A > = 0.
First eliminate the fractions by multiplying the equation by 8
8y = x + 56
Subtract x from each side
-x + 8y = 56
SInce x coeficient can't be negative multiply the equation by negative one.
x - 8y = -56
Using logarithms property of log(x)+log(y)=log(xy)
so here, you can sum the equation to;
so you can simply say that;
and by multiplying (x+6)*(x-6)
and as you know also that;
is same as
so you can simply state it as;
And you can check your work by substituting with 10 instead of x in the original function.
Hope this helps!
