We need to express this statement into a equation:
First of all. We will walk through the statement step by step into a mathematical language, so:
1. The sum of five and x:
x + 5
2. Twice the sum of five and x:
2(x + 5)
3. Eight less than x:
(x-8)
Finally the whole statement is:
4. <span>Twice the sum of five and x is eight less than x:
</span>
2(x + 5) = (x-8)
2x + 10 = x - 8
x = -18
You should ask your parent/guardian
or teacher if needed! Merry Christmas!
C. y = 1/2x - 2
<u>Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope and y-intercept</u>
Slope: 1/2
Y-Intercept: -2
15.5-3.5=12. this is how many hours he has worked already.
12/1⅓=9. this is because how many hours he has worked per how many hours he worked per day to show how many days he worked
the answer is 9 days.
12hours * 1day/1⅓ hours
^^ignore that if it doesn't make sense, but basically the hours will cancel and you'd be left with days as your only unit to show why you would divide 12 by 1⅓
hope this helped!
