Answer:
8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We start by calculating the distance between the two points
To calculate this, we use the distance formula
Let the distance be D
We have the formula as;
D = √(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2
D = √(-2+2)^2 + (-5-3)^2
D = √(64)
D = 8 units
Since 1 unit is 1 mile,
then 8 units will be 8 * 1 = 8 miles
The independent variable is the days he spends reading because nothing we have can determine that. However the dependent variable is the total minutes of reading because it relies on the independent variable to figure out. You can't find the total minutes without knowing the days he spends. The equation sould be d times the amount he reads per day =m
Answer:
14x - 8 = 22 + 20x
x = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "the number" be represented by x
Take each part of the statement and translate into algebraic form
"14 times a number" 14x
"decreased By eight" -8
"is" =
"22 Increased by" 22 +
"20 times The same number" 20x
Put the equation together. Solve for x by isolating.
(
14x - 8 = 22 + 20x
14x - 8 - 20x = 22 + 20x - 20x Subtract 20x from both sides
-6x - 8 = 22
-6x - 8 + 8 = 22 + 8 Add 8 to both sides
-6x = 30
-6x ÷ -6 = 30 ÷ -6 Divide both sides by -6
x = -5
Your going to want to first distribute the negative out to the second equation
65x+50y-16x+21y
49x+71y
