<span>The answer is:  [C]:  
__________________________________________________________
Multiply each side by −8, subtract 35 from each side.

___________________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________
Given: You have (-1/8)*(x + 35) = -7
________________________________________
Note that all the answer choices given start with: "Multiply each side by...."; 
</span>____________________
Given the choices, multiplying EACH SIDE of the equation by "(-8)" would make sense, since doing would cancel the "(-1/8)" on the "right-hand side" of the equation above to a "1" (i.e "cancel out" that ("-1/8") value); and would result in making the "right side" of the equation above ("-7") a positive integer number. 
 Then you would be left with:  x + 35 = 56 ; so the next step would be to:
__________
Subtract: "(35)" from each side of the question [hence the answer choice] to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x".

A right triangle has one angle that measure 23o. The adjacent leg measures 27.6 cm and the hypotenuse measures 30 cm.
MrMuchimi

Answer:

161.8cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

solve for height which is the opposite

opp=x

sin(theata)= opp./hyp.

sin23=x/30

x=30×sin23

x=11.72cm

height=opposite

height=11.72cm

base=adjacent

base=27.6cm

½of 27.6cm=13.8

13.8cm×11.72cm=161.74 (2d.p)

161.74 rounded to the nearest tenths= 161.7

I'm not sure if it's the answer but it's the closest thing to the options

The equations are in slope intercept form which is

y = mx+b

m is the slope of the equation. slope is rise/ run meaning that if a slope is 2, you can also say 2/1. this means you go up 2 squares and to the right 1 point. if the slope is negative, it looks like a downhill and the line falls left to right. if the slope is positive, it looks like uphill and the line falls right to left.

the x is what the slope is multiplied by but isn’t significant in graphing because it’s always just x

the b represents the y intercept. the y axis is the vertical line on the graph. for example if b = 7, then the line goes through 7 on the graph and basically tells us that (0,7) is a point on the line.

for y= x + 7, the slope is 1. that equation is just saying y= 1x+7 but the one is unnecessary usually because it’s implied that the x means 1x
