So what you need to do in an equation like this is first to distribute meaning the number directly outside the parentheses needs to be multiplied by the numbers inside the parentheses:
3x + 6 = 5 then: subtract each side by six
3x = -1 now: divide each side by 3 to get x by itself
x = -1/3

You are given the dollar value of a product in 2015 and the rate at which the value of the product is expected to change during
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

V = $3.50t + $90.5....

Step-by-step explanation:

V(t) is a function of t that expresses the value in year 2000+t.  

We know that the increase is $3.50 times t.

So,

V(t) = $3.50t + c  

where c is the constant.

V(15) =  $3.50 (15) + c = $143     [t=15 as mentioned in the question]

and therefore  

c = $143 - $3.50 (15)

c= $143 - $52.50

c= $90.5  

Now we got the value of c. We can write the equation as  

V = $3.50t + $90.5....

In the coordinate plane, line p has a slope of 8 and y-intercept (0,3). What are the slope and y-intercept of line r?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

y  = 8x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line we are describing here is line p;

 slope of line p = 8

  y- intercept = (0,3)

y-intercept of a line is the point where it crosses the y-axis. At this point, the x = 0

So;

  Slope of the line = 8

   y-intercept  =  3

Equation of the line;

       y  = mx + c

y and x are the coordinates

m is the slope

c is the y-intercept

      y  = 8x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In every sequence pattern, it recalls that rule, it adds 15 in this need to build from the specified initial estimate each sequence.

In Pattern A.  

5+20+35+50+......

In Pattern B.

10+25+40+55+70+.....

In Pattern C.

15+30+45+60....
