Answer:
<u>y=5x+7</u>
<u>or</u>
<u>f(x)=5x+7</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope (m) = 5
Y-intercept (b) = 7
Using the equation y=mx+b, you can find m and b to make y=5x+7.
Steps:
(1, 12) (2, 17) formula: y2-y1 / x2-x1 = m
17-12= 5
2-1 = 1
5/1=5
m=5
12=5(1)+b
12=5+b
7=b
17=5(2)+b
17=10+b
7=b
<u>Answer: y=5x+7</u>
<u>or</u>
<u>f(x)=5x+7</u>
Answer:
The answer would be positive 6
Step-by-step explanation:
I know it is -6 because when you solve this you do...
-x = -6
Divide both sides by -6
-x/-6 = -6/-6
the answer would be 6
because a negative divided by a negative is a positive.
Hope this helps have a great day! :)
If you would like to solve the equation -5x - 25 = 78, you should do this using the following steps:
<span>-5x - 25 = 78
</span>-5x - 25 + 25 = 78 + 25
-5x + 0 = 103
-5x = 103 /(-5)
x = 103 / (-5)
x = - 103/5 = - 20.6
The error was already made at step 1.
Alright in this one, you are going to need to factor.
The width is x
The length is 2x-4
To find the area of a rectangle is L*W
so (2x-4)(x) when distributed is 2x^2 -4x
Then put that in the equation and you have:
2x^2 -4x = 96
2x^2 -4x -96 = 0
2x^2+12x-16x-96=0
3x(x+4)-4(x+4)=0
(3x-4)=0
(x+4)=0
x=-4
<u>x=3/4</u>
Since length isn't negative
we will use <u>3/4 as x.
</u>
Width= 0.75 ft
Length= 1.5
