5(x^2 - 14x + 258/5)
= 5((x-7)^2 -49+258/5)
= 5((x-7)^2 + 13/5)
= 5(x-7)^2 + 13
I belive this is how it should be done

Question 2.2. Which ordered pairs make the inequality true?

taurus [48]

Question 2.2. Which ordered pairs make the inequality true?2x + y > –4The solutions are (-1, 2) and (1, -5), look at the graph in the attachment.

Question 3.3. What is the slope of the line represented by the equation?

There is no equation

Question 4.4. What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 6x - 3y = 4?

Convert to slope-intercept form:

6x - 3y = 4

Subtract 6x to both sides:

-3y = -6x + 4

Divide -3 to both sides:

y = -6/-3x + 4/-3

Simplify:

y = 2x - 4/3

Now it's in slope intercept form, y = mx + b, where 'm' is the slope. So the slope here is 2.

Question 5.5. What is the simplified form of the expression?

15y - 3(4y + 10)

Distribute -3 into the parenthesis:

15y - 12y - 30

Combine like terms:

3y - 30

Choose the slope-intercept form of y + 3 = 4(x - 5).

Scrat [10]

Answer: y=4x-23

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply the 4 on the right side to make it y+3=4x-20. Then subtract 3 on both sides to get y=4x-23

Angela tried to solve an equation step by step. \begin{aligned} \dfrac34+m&=\dfrac54\\\\ \dfrac34+m-\dfrac34&=\dfrac54+\

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The mistake she made was ; She didn't change the sign when subtracting -3/4 from both sides

She wrote 5/4+3/4 instead of 5/4-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct solution:

$\frac{3}{4} + m = \frac{5}{4}$

Subtract-3/4 from both sides

$\frac{3}{4} - \frac{3}{4} + m = \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3}{4}$

Simplify

$m = \frac{5}{4} - \frac{3}{4} \\ m = \frac{1}{2}$

I don't know how to do question 12(b)

Virty [35]

Amy: x skirts Betty: 2x skirts Carol: (2x) + 7 skirts If Amy has 18 less than Carol, than Carol's equation minus 18 equals Amy's equation: [(2x) + 7] - 18 = x +18 +18 (2x) + 7 = x + 18 - 7 -7 2x = x + 11 -x -x x = 11 Input the solution for x into the girls equation to double check. Amy: 11 Betty: 2(x) 2(11) =22 Carol: (2x) + 7 22 + 7 =29 Does Amy have 18 less than Carol? Carol - Amy = 18 29 - 11 = 18 18 = 18 the problem is solved

The cost of 3 notebooks and 4 pencils is $8.50. Determine the cost of one notebook and one pencil

Assoli18 [71]

Call the notebooks x, and the pencils y.
3x + 4y = $8.50 and 5x + 8y = $14.50 
Then just solve as simultaneous equations: 
3x + 4y = $8.50 
5x + 8y = $14.50 

5(3x + 4y = 8.5) 
3(5x + 8y = 14.5) 

15x + 20y = 42.5 
15x + 24y = 43.5 

Think: DASS (Different Add, Similar Subtract). 15x appears in both equations so subtract one equation from the other. Eassier to subtract (15x + 20y = 42.5) from (15x + 24y = 43.5) 

(15x + 24y = 43.5) - (15x + 20y = 42.5) = (4y = 1) which means y = 0.25. 

Then substitue into equation : 
15x + 20y = 42.5 
15x + 5 + 42.5 
15x = 42.5 - 5 = 37.5 
15x = 37.5 
x = 2.5 

15x + 24y = 43.5 
15(2.5) + 24(0.25) 
37.5 + 6 = 43.5 

So x (notebooks) are 2.5 ($2.50) each and y (pencils) are 0.25 ($0.25) each.
