Answer:
2(8a + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest way to do this is to substitute <em>a</em> for a number. For example, let's just make things easy and make <em>a </em> = 1.
So, if a = 1, the expression 16a + 8 would be 16(1) + 8 = 24.
Let's find all the expressions that would also equal 24 if <em>a = </em>24.
Plug in 1 for <em>a</em> in each of the equations. You will find that 2(8a + 8) will not equal 24 if <em>a </em>equals 1.
2(8a + 8)
2(8(1) + 8
2(8 + 8)
2(16)

Answer:
21. The slope is 50.
22. 0
23. y=50x
24. $2600
Step-by-step explanation:
21. The slope of the line is 50. Slope is defined as "rise over run". As the line increases, each segment moves up the y-axis by $50, and to the right on the x-axis 1 segment. (Work: 50 divided by 1)
22. The y-intercept is (0, 0), or simply 0. If you look at the graph you can see that the line crosses the y-axis at the origin. This makes the y-intercept equal to 0.
23. The slope tells you that the student makes $50 every week. The y-intercept is 0. Using the formula y=mx+b, an appropriate equation would be y=50x.
24. The equation found in problem 23 can me used to determine how much a student makes (y) after "x" weeks. Substitute 52 for x to solve for y. This becomes y=50(52). This can be simplified to y=2600. This means that after 52 weeks, the student will have made $2,600.
