H(x) = 0.15x - 0.19
p(x) = 0.29x - 0.16
(p · h)(-8) = (0.29(-8) - 0.16)(0.15(-8) - 0.19)
(p · h)(-8) = (-2.32 - 0.16)(-1.2 - 0.19)
(p · h)(-8) = (-2.48)(-1.39)
(p · h)(-8) = 3.4472
It is approximately equal to 3.
First number = X
second number = x +26 ( exceeds means higher so add 26)
x + x+26 = 58
combine like terms:
2x + 26 = 58
subtract 26 from each side:
2x = 58-26
2x = 32
divide both sides by 2:
x = 32/2
x = 16
first number is 16
second number = 16+26 = 42
Answer:
The equation of the line is y = (-1/2)x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, have to find gradient using the formula above :
(2,4) & (14,-2)
m = (-2-4) / (14-2)
= -6 / 12
= -1/2
Second, using y = mx + b as b is a constant and is a y-intercept. Using any of these 2 coordinates to find the value of b with given gradient :
y = mx + b
Let y=4 & x=2
4 = (-1/2)(2) + b
b = 4 + 1
= 5
Lastly, put the value of gradient and y-intercept into the equation :
y = mx + b
Let m=-1/2 & b=5
y = (-1/2)x + 5
I believe the correct answer is G
