X + 11 = 5x -5
x-x+11=5x-x-5
11 = 4x -5
11+5 = 4x -5+5
16 = 4x
16/4 = 4x/4
x = 4

Not entirely sure about the equation, but hes 4. 4 plus 11 is 15, fifteen plus 5 is 20. (fifteen is five less than 20) and 20 is 5 times his age, which is 4

Identify an equation in slope-intercept form for the line parallel to y = 5x + 2
Elanso [62]

Answer:

D. y = 5x + 29

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation of a line in slope-intercept form, we need to find the slope and the y-intercept.

The equation of a line is y=mx + b.

x and y are the coordinates of any point on a line.

m is the slope.

b is the y-intercept.

Lines are parallel to each other when they have the same slope. A line parallel to y = 5x + 2 would also have the slope 5.

m = 5

Since we have a point on the line, (-6, -1) and the slope, 5, there is only one missing variable, b, the y-intercept.

Substitute the known information into the equation and isolate b.

y = mx + b

-1 = 5(-6) + b  <=Simplify by solving 5 X -6

-1 = -30 + b

-1 + 30 = -30 + 30 + b  <= Add 30 to both sides to isolate b

29 = b

b = 29  <= Standard formatting puts the variable on the left side

Put the m and b values into the equation of a line to solve:

y = mx + b

y = 5x + 29

Notebooks cost $ 1.20 each. This weekend they will be on sale for $ 0.80. What percentage is the sale
Rainbow [258]

From the information we have, we know that each book costs 1.20 dollars. So we shall say this price is at 100% .

Now we need to form an equation to get the percentage  when the books are sold at 0.80 dollars.

100% = 1.20

       x = 0. 80

Where x is the new percentage when the sale is at 0.80 dollars.

We cross multiply the equation:

1.20 *x = 0.80 * 100

1.2x = 80

x = 80/1.2

x = 66.7%

Round off 66.7 to the nearest tenth we get 67%

The notebooks are sold at 67% (of the original cost).

If you vertically compress the absolute value parent function, F(x) = |x|, by
marshall27 [118]

The current function equation is  Y=1/3|x|

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

The meaning relative f(x) = is the absolute value and is weighted by a factor 3 vertically.

If a constant (say a) multiplies the function, the parent will be extended vertically.

We have below vertical extension and compression conditions.

A > 1 = > spread vertically

0 < < 1 = > compression vertically

Therefore we will subtract the entire feature by 1/3 for vertical compression by a factor of 3.

The equation for the current function is then Y=1/3|x|

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