4) fifteen less than y is 32
15 - y= 32
15 - (-17)= 32
two negatives become positive so 15+17= 32
Answer: The answer is 3.77.
Explanation: Since 0.10 is 10 times smaller than 1, we know that if we divide 37.7 by 10, we will get the same answer as 0.10 x 37.7.
Bilingual : trilingual = 14 : 3
So, ...
trilingual : total = 3 : (14+3) = 3 : 17
The number of trilingual denizens was (3/17)*3400 = 600.
Answer:
the second choice is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y =
x - 9 is in this form
with slope m = 
• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence
y =
x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line
To find c substitute (- 8, - 18) into the partial equation
- 18 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 18 + 6 = - 12
y =
x - 12 ← equation of parallel line
Answer:
5x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
If 5 yards of fabric is $14 you need an equation that would solve how much 1 yard of fabric costs. You can say 5x = 14 or x = 2.8 which means that one yard of fabric (1x or just x) is $2.80.
