Answer:

460/11, rounded to 41.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that our number is x. The first part states that we decrease 3/4 of a number by 18. Therefore, we find (3/4) of x and subtract that by 18, or (3/4)x-18. That is then equal to increasing (1/5) of x by 5, or (1/5)x+5. Our equation is then (3/4)x-18=(1/5)x + 5.

Adding 18 to both sides, we get (3/4)x = (1/5)x + 23.

Multiplying both sides by 5 and 4 (or 20 as a whole) to remove the denominators, we get that 15x=4x + 460. Subtracting both sides by 4x, we get that 11x=460, and dividing both sides by 11, our answer is rounded to 41.8 (or just 460/11)

Recall the slope intercept form of an equation is:

y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c = vertical intercept.

y + 2 = 5x + 4

y + 2 = 5x + 4

y = 5x + 4 - 2

y = 5x + 2

So the slope intercept form is y = 5x + 2

Hope this helps.

Juan exercises more than 30 minutes per day.
Law Incorporation [45]
Answer:
Well, it depends on how many days he exercises. If Juan exercises for 30 minutes a day, multiple 30 by how many days he exercises.
Example:
1 Day = 30 Minutes
2 Days = 60 Minutes / 1 Hour
3 Days = 90 Minutes / 1 Hour, 30 Minutes
4 Days = 120 Minutes / 2 Hours
5 Days = 150 Minutes / 2 Hours, 30 Minutes
6 Days = 180 Minutes / 3 Hours
7 Days = 210 Minutes / 3 Hours, 30 Minutes
And so on..., hope this helps! :)
