Answer:

Something close to (1.8,2.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x-1

y=-1/4 x+3

Since y=2x-1 and y=-1/4 x +3 then 2x-1=-1/4 x +3.

I'm going to multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the fraction:

8x-4=-x+12

Add x on both sides:

9x-4=12

Add 4 on both sides:

9x=16

Divide both sides by 9:

x=16/9 is approximately 1.8 when put into calculator.

Now if x=16/9 and y=2x-1, then y=2(16/9)-1=32/9-1=32/9-9/9=(32-9)/9=23/9.

y=23/9 is approximately 2.6 when put into calculator.

So we are looking for an ordered pair pretty close to (1.8,2.6).

The graph is shown to you so I will put one here as well:

Which of the following best describes the change in the range when 13 is
svetoff [14.1K]
The answer is D). It increases by 13.
If you put the numbers in order from least to greatest.. 26,34,38,49,65,75,81
You will see the 26 is the smallest number and 81 in the highest number. The range between the two numbers is 55. To find the range you take the smallest number and subtract it from the biggest number. But when you add the number 13 to the problem then26 is no longer the smallest Number because 13 replaced it. So then you take 81 and subtract 13 from it and get 68. And then you take 55 and subtract it from 68 and come with 13. Which makes the answer D.

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-5, -2) and is parallel to y = 2/3x+1
rewona [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so the slope has to be the same because it’s parallel.

y=2/3x+1

slope=2/3

y=-2

x=-5

y=2/3x+ what

-2=-3 1/3 + what

1 1/3

hence, y=2/3x+4/3
