Answer:
Choice B: Only (-1,-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
With this one, first the equation needs to be reduced into point-slope format.
y+5=2(x+1)
Distributive Prop.
y+5=2x+2
Carry over the 5 to the opposite side.
y=2x-3
Now, with the point slope form, it makes it easier to plug in the question choices to find which if any are correct.
Choice A: X is 5; Y is 10
y=2x-3
y=2(5)-3
y=10-3
y=7
This does not give a y value of 10, so it is false.
Choice B: X is -1; Y is -5
y=2(x)-3
y=2(-1)-3
y= -2-3
y= -5
This does give a y value of -5, so it is true. Choices C and D are therefore false as well, since only Choice B works.
Answer:
Y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
You would add 4 to both sides to cancel out the -4. That leaves y by itself equaling 7.
Answer:
The first car was traveling 70 mph, while the second was driving 50 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the cars as a proportion:

X represents the speed of the second car. By cross multiplying, you get the following equation:

You solve by distributing 150 to get 210x = 150x + 3000.
Solving for x gets you 50.
That means the first car was going at 50 mph. Adding 20, you get 70 as the speed for the second car.
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
(1/16)^x
Let x = 1/4
(1/16)^ 1/4
Rewriting 16 as 2^4
(1/2^4)^ 1/4
We know that 1 / a^b = a^-b
(2 ^ -4)^ 1/4
We know that a^b^c = a^(b*c)
2^(-4*1/4)
2^-1
We know that a^-b = 1/ a^b
2^-1 = 1/2^1 = 1/2
63degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
there are multiple ways to do this
for one, angle a = angle e (corresponding angles)
angle f + angle e = 180 degrees (angles on a straight line)
angle f = 180 degrees - angle e where angle e = angle a = 117degrees
so angle f = 63 degrees.
