Hello!!! Princess Sakura here ^^

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope formula is $y=mx+b$

so in this equation it has to be $\frac{-5}{1}$

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: $\bigg(n+\dfrac{5}{4}\bigg)^2$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$n^2+\dfrac{5}{2}n+\underline{\qquad}\\\\\\n^2+\dfrac{5}{2}n+\bigg(\dfrac{5}{2\cdot 2}\bigg)^2\\\\\\n^2+\dfrac{5}{2}n+\bigg(\dfrac{5}{4}\bigg)^2\\\\\\=\bigg(n+\dfrac{5}{4}\bigg)^2$

a circus charges $2.50 for kids tickets and $6 for adult tickets last week and twice as many kids attended the circus than adult

aliina [53]

Let
x-----------> the number of kids
y----------> the number of adults

we know that
2.5x+6y=$7150---------> equation 1
x=2y-------------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
2.5*[2y]+6y=7150-----> 5y+6y=7150----> 11y=7150-----> y=650
x=2y----> x=2*650----> 1300

the answer is
the number of kids is 1300

17. Which of the following equations would graph a line parallel to 3y = x + 5? (

Naddik [55]

The equation 3y = x + 1 would graph a line parallel to 3y = x + 5 ⇒ 1st

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have same slopes and different y-intercepts

To find which equation would graph a line parallel to 3y = x + 5

1. Put the equation in the form of y = mx + c

2. m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept

3. Look for the equation which has the same values of m and different

values of c

∵ 3y = x + 5

- Divide each term of the equation by 3 to put the equation in the

form of y = mx + c

∴ y = $\frac{1}{3}$ x + $\frac{5}{3}$

∴ m = $\frac{1}{3}$

∴ c = $\frac{5}{3}$

The first answer:

∵ 3y = x + 1

- Divide each term of the equation by 3

∴ y = $\frac{1}{3}$ x + $\frac{1}{3}$

∴ m = $\frac{1}{3}$

∴ c = $\frac{1}{3}$

∵ The two equations have same slope m = $\frac{1}{3}$

∵ The two equations have different y-intercepts c = $\frac{5}{3}$

and c = $\frac{1}{3}$

∴ 3y = x + 5 and 3y = x + 1 represent two parallel lines

The equation 3y = x + 1 would graph a line parallel to 3y = x + 5
