The equation is put in slope intercept form which is y=mx+b
The slope is m and in this case it is -1/2.
To find the y intercept substitute in 0
for x then solve.
If the problem was written x + 4x. We would know to add like the coefficients together and get 5x same thing with the radicals.
The independent variable is the cost of the skateboard, c.
The dependent variable would be the total cost, t.
The best way to understand this is that the cost of the skateboard from the company is not going to change based on a sales tax rate., But the overall total cost could change depending on what the sales tax rates are.
The total cost would be dependent upon the sales tax rate.
Answer:
See Below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Paragraph Proof:
We are given that ∠1 ≅ ∠4. ∠1 and ∠4 are alternate exterior angles. Since they are congruent, by the Alternate Exterior Angles Converse, the two lines being cut by the transversal must be parallel. Then by the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem, ∠3 ≅ ∠2.
2-Column Proof
Statements Reasons:
1) 
Given
2) 
Alternate Exterior Angles Converse
3) 
Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
I would write a flowchart as well, but unfortunately, I never learned it that way.
Answer:
30cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the thickness of the books is 2cm (This is a reasonable assumption, as books are almost always longer and wider than they are thick, and assuming that the books are stacked flat on top of one another, faces up or down, and not sideways, the question becomes 'What is the height of 15 books stacked on top of one another, if each book is 2cm thick?' The answer to this question is 15*2 or 30.
