Answer: x-2y = -8</h3>
===========================================
Explanation:
Multiply both sides by 2 to clear out the fraction
y = (1/2)x+4
2y = 2[ (1/2)x + 4 ]
2y = 2*(1/2)x + 2*4
2y = x + 8
Then move the x term over to the left side
2y = x+8
2y-x = 8
-x+2y = 8
Optionally we can multiply both sides by -1
-x+2y = 8
-1*(-x+2y) = -1*8
x-2y = -8
This is in standard form Ax+By = C with A = 1, B = -2, C = -8
The reason why I multiplied both sides by -1 was to make A > 0 which is what some textbooks use as convention. Of course -x+2y = 8 is equally valid too.
Answer:
$2076.30
Step-by-step explanation:
In the n-th year, the rent will be ...
an = a1·r^(n-1) . . . . . . . . . r is the year on year ratio: 1+rate of increase
an = 1100·(1.095^(n-1))
Then the rent in the 8th year is ...
a8 = 1100·(1.095^(8-1)) ≈ 2076.30
The rent in the 8th year would be $2076.30.
This is always ''interesting'' If you see an absolute value, you always need to deal with when it is zero:
(x-4)=0 ===> x=4,
so that now you have to plot 2 functions!
For x<= 4: what's inside the absolute value (x-4) is negative, right?, then let's make it +, by multiplying by -1:
|x-4| = -(x-4)=4-x
Then:
for x<=4, y = -x+4-7 = -x-3
for x=>4, (x-4) is positive, so no changes:
y= x-4-7 = x-11,
Now plot both lines. Pick up some x that are 4 or less, for y = -x-3, and some points that are 4 or greater, for y=x-11
In fact, only two points are necessary to draw a line, right? So if you want to go full speed, choose:
x=4 and x= 3 for y=-x-3
And just x=5 for y=x-11
The reason is that the absolute value is continuous, so x=4 works for both:
x=4===> y=-4-3 = -7
x==4 ====> y = 4-11=-7!
abs() usually have a cusp int he point where it is =0
Hope it helps, despite being this long!
