Answer:

The number is -3 2/5 or -17/5 or -3.4 ( all are correct but in different forms )

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 1 2/5 = -2

So to find x you need to subtract 1 2/5 form -2

So , -2 - 1 2/5

= -2 - 7/5

= -2 + -7/5

= -2/1 + -7/5

= -17/5 = -3 2/5

Hope this helps and pls mark as brainliest :)

vodka [1.7K]
It has given you that to earn $85 in one week. Kim could earn $8 per hour babysitting and $15 per hour for yard work with work time limited to 8 hours per week. Now we have to represent the variable X is the numbers of hours spent doing babysitting in the week. And Y represents the number of hours spent doing yard work in the week. The equation representing the condition on the total number of hours to be worked is: x+y= 8. The equation relating the number of hours working at each job toward the fund- raising goal is: 8x+ 15y= 85 and your final answer should be x= 5

The table shows a linear function.
faltersainse [42]

There's probably a mistake in the problem; as written the answer is none of the above.

We have slope from the first two points of (4-2)/(0-4) = -1/2 and a y intercept from the second point of 4 so

f(x) = (-1/2) x + 4

maybe that's the third choice; forgot the fraction bar.
