If you divide both sides by -4 you get

$y=-2x$

So, you wrote the equation in the form y=kx, and in this form k is the constant of variation. So, the constant is -2.

The walls are vertical so the angle opposite X would be a right angle which is 90 degrees.

X would be 180 - 90 - 35 = 55 degrees

X and 2y - 5 are complementary angles which add together to equal 90:

2y - 5 + 55 = 90

Simplify:

2y +50 = 90

Subtract 50 from both sides:

2y = 40

Divide both sides by 2:

y = 20

Answer:

20 + 2x = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

So you are setting the two expressions equal to each other.

buying a membership card and paying each time looks like this: 20 + 2x where x is the number of times you go to the gym. 20 dollars base then 2 each time you go.

4 each time you go is just 4x

so just set the two equal to each other.

20 + 2x = 4x

If you solve it you will get x = something, which would be the number of times to make the two equal.

Answer:

$y=-2.95836 x +234.56159$

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that th data is this one:

x: 50, 55, 50, 79, 44, 37, 70, 45, 49

y: 152, 48, 22, 35, 43, 171, 13, 185, 25

a) Compute the equation of the least-squares regression line. (Round your numerical values to five decimal places.)For this case we need to calculate the slope with the following formula:

$m=\frac{S_{xy}}{S_{xx}}$
