Answer:
A. Y-68=-5(x-14)
Step-by-step explanation:
Mary is spending money at the average rate of $5 per day. After 14 days she has $68 left. The amount left depends on the number of days that have passed. write an equation for the situation
We find the equation using the point slope equation of a line. This is given as:
y - y1 = m(x-x1)
The slope intercept form will be
y = -5x + b
since the amount decreases by $5 per day...
Our slope is -5 so m=-5
We have a point (x1,y1) = (14, 68)
Hence, we have:
y-68 = -5(x-14)
Option A is correct
<h3><u>The value of x is equal to 1.</u></h3><h3><u>6(x + 2) = 20x - 2</u></h3>
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
6x + 12 = 20x - 2
<em><u>Add 2 to both sides.</u></em>
6x + 14 = 20x
<em><u>Subtract 16x from both sides.</u></em>
14 = 14x
<em><u>Divide both sides by x.</u></em>
x = 1
It is not symmetric because it has a peak at 1 and to be symmetric it has to be the same on both sides of the peak
