Answer:
A. 4(x + 8) = 56
Step-by-step explanation:
the correct equation would be 4(x + 8) = 56
because we need to find the number of hours on Saturday, since there Sheldon gets paid $4 per hour, we must subtract the amount Sheldon made on Sunday by the total he made and then divide that by 4 to get the number of hours on Saturday
$4 = number of dollars per hour
$56 = total on Saturday and Sunday
8 hours = Number of hours babysat on Sunday
x = hours spent on Saturday
4(x + 8) = 56
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
4(x + 8) = 56
(4)(x) + (4)(8) = 56(Distribute)
4x + 32 = 56
Step 2: Subtract 32 from both sides.
4x + 32 − 32 = 56 − 32
4x = 24
Step 3: Divide both sides by 4.
4x/4 = 24/4
x = 6
To check if this is correct, we add the amount Sheldon earned on Saturday to the amount he earned on Sunday, which is
6(4) + 8(4) = 56
24 + 32 = 56
56 = 56
or you could substitute the answer in the problem
4(6 + 8) = 56
Distribute
24 + 32 = 56
Simplify
56 = 56
Answer:
Steeper
Step-by-step explanation:
As the slope of the line increases in value, the vertical distance becomes greater compared to the horizontal distance. Like in stairs or a roof, this results in the stairs and roof becoming steeper. The line becomes more vertical and steeper in its slant.
If we rewrite it as y=mx+d (which can be taken from here from subtracting ax and c from both sides, then dividing b, resulting in y=(-a/b)(x)-c/b. We can then substitute -a/b for m and -c/b for d), if d=0, then we have m as a constant and as we add a specific number to y (that number being m) every time the x value increases by 1, it therefore forms a straight line. If d is not 0, then we simply add d to every single number - this is still a straight line due to that we still add a specific number to y every time x increases by 1 every single time
