<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
<u>Algebra I</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define expression</u>
4(-8x + 5) - (-33x - 26)
<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>
- Distribute: -32x + 20 + 33x + 26
- Combine like terms (x): x + 20 + 26
- Combine like terms (Z): x + 46
Direct variation describes - roughly - a relationship between two values where <em>scaling one value will scale the other by the same amount</em>. The x value <em>doubles </em>as it goes from 5 to 10, and since y varies directly as x, we can double the old y value to get the new one as well. Since the old y value is 8, our new y value should be 8 x 2 = 16.
