Answer:
f(x) = x*3/4 + 42.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The original difference between the pair is 70 - 30 = 40
The new difference between the pair is 95 - 65 = 30
Since the differences are not the same, Mrs Bailey must first perform a (slope) multiplication by a factor of 30/40 or 3/4
Then 30 * 3/4 = 22.5
Then she can shift the scores up by 65 - 22.5 = 42.5 in order to get the range from 65 to 95
Therefore, f(x) = x*3/4 + 42.5. We can test that
f(30) = 30*3/4 + 42.5 = 65
f(70) = 70*3/4 + 42.5 = 95
Look at the picture.
Therefore we have the equation:
10y - 29 = 7y + 19 <em>add 29 to both sides</em>
10y = 7y + 48 <em>subtract 7y from both sides</em>
3y = 48 <em>divide both sides by 3</em>
y = 16
3x + 7 = 5x - 21 <em>subtract 7 from both sides</em>
3x = 5x = -28 <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>
-2x = -28 <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>
x = 14

Two numbers with the same sign, multiplied or divided, the answer is positive.
Two numbers with different signs, multiplied or divided, the answer is negative. </span>
Answer: rational
Step-by-step explanation:
A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction. Hence 1-3.45 = - 2.45 which is - 49/20 as a fraction
