Let x represent the smaller. Then x+1 is the greater of the two.

... x+1 = 2x +20

... 0 = x + 19 . . . . . subtract x+1

... x = -19

Your two integers are -19 and -18.

A jet ski rental company charges h dollars for the first hour its jet skis are rented and k
skad [1K]

Answer:

C. h + k (t - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>If we use an example, you can plug in the numbers and test out which equation works. Say the first hours costs $10 and each hour after that is an additional $5. If someone rents a jet ski for 4 hours, how much did it cost?</em>

The first hour = $10

The 3 additional hours (totaled) = $15

Cost = $25

<em />

<em>So now that we know the cost, we can plug in our numbers to these equations to find which one comes out with $25.</em>

h = 10

k = 5

t = 4

<u>A</u>. 10 + 4 + 5 = <u>19</u>

<u>B</u>. 10 + (4 · 5) = 10 + 20 = <u>30</u>

<u>C</u>. 10 + 5 (4 - 1) = 10 + 5 (3) = 10 + 15 = <u>25</u>

<u>D</u>. 10 + 5 (4 + 1) = 10 + 5 (5) = 10 + 25 = <u>35</u>

<u>E</u>. 10 + (4/5 - 1) = 10 + (-0.2) = <u>9.8</u>

<em>C is the only problem that comes out as $25, therefore it must be the correct answer.</em>

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,-1) and has a slope of 5/2
Darya [45]

Answer:

y = (5/2)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll look for an equation in the format y = mx + b, where mn is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

y = mx + b

m is (5/2)

y = (5/2)x + b

We need a value of b that will force the line through point (-2,-1).  Enter the point (-2,-1) in the equation and solve for b:

y = (5/2)x + b

-1 = (5/2)(-2) + b

-1 = -5 + b

b = 4

<u>The equation is y = (5/2)x + 4</u>
