Answer:

55 decrease by 5 is 50, or 55 - 5 = 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the missing number.

When you hear the words decrease, minus, that tells you to subtract.

Before we subtract, if there is a variable, we must do the opposite of subtraction, we need to add.

50 + 5 = x

Which means x = 50 + 5.

50 + 5 = 55.

Therefore, x = 55.

Travka [436]

One glass of milk has 11 carbs and one snack bar has 14 carbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Glass of milk = x

Snack bar = y

According to given statement;

4x+2y=72 Eqn 1

2x+3y=64 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 2

$2(2x+3y=64)\\4x+6y=128\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 3

$(4x+6y)-(4x+2y)=128-72\\4x+6y-4x-2y=56\\4y=56$

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4y}{4}=\frac{56}{4}\\y=14$

Putting y=14 in Eqn 1

$4x+2(14)=72\\4x+28=72\\4x=72-28\\4x=44$

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{44}{4}\\x=11$

One glass of milk has 11 carbs and one snack bar has 14 carbs.

A linear equation in the form y = mx + c has slope m Any line parallel to 3x + 9y = 5 has the same slope 3x + 9y = 5 → 9y = -3x + 5 → y = (-3/9)x + 5/9 → y = -⅓x + 5/9 & So it’s 10 and 0

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 3 : (x, y - 5)

K' = (-3, 2 - 5) = (-3, -3)
L' = (1, 4 - 5) = (1, -1)
M' = (-1, 0 - 5) = (-1, -5)
N' = (-5, -2 - 5) = (-5, -7)

Question 4 : (x + 4, y + 1)

D' = (-4 + 4, 3 + 1) = (0, 4)
E' = (0 + 4, 2 + 1) = (4, 3)
F' = (-2 + 4, -6 + 1) = (2, -5)
G' = (-6 + 4, -5 + 1) = (-2, -4)
