Answer: y = -4/5x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

You start with 4x+5y=-20

Isolate y by moving 4x to the other side, now your problem should look like:

5y=-4x-20

To get y by itself, divide both sides by 5, (don't forget to divide -20 by 5 too)

y=-4/5x-4

Answer:

-4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets put the equation in slope intercept form

4x+5y = -20

Subtract 4x from each side

4x-4x+5y = -4x-20

5y = -4x-20

Divide each side by 5

5y/5 = -4x/5 -20/5

y = -4/5 x -4

The equation is in the form y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

the slope is -4/5  and the y intercept is -4

Write the following in vertical columns. Then subtract.<br><br>b) 4a - 7c from 4a - 3b + 8c<br>​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

It is instructed to subtract (2a−3b+4c) from the sum of (a+3b−4c),(4a−b+9c) and (−2b+3c−a).

So, First we will do the sum of the three given polynomials,

Sum =(a+3b−4c)+(4a−b+9c)+(−2b+3c−a)

=(a+4a−a)+(3b−b−2b)+(−4c+9c+3c)

=4a+8c

Now, we can perform the subtraction,

∴ Required difference

=(4a+8c)−(2a−3b+4c)

=4a+8c−2a+3b−4c

=2a+3b+4c

Fill in the blank.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: x ≈ 18 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use our trig knowledge to solve this.

The man is standing 10 ft away, but we also need to add the 5 ft shadow as well as that is a point on our triangle.

We can set up a simple trig equation of: tan(50) = x/15

x being the height of the lamppost.

Now we solve.

tan(50) = 1.1918

1.1918 *15 = x

x = 17.876

Now round to the nearest foot.

x ≈ 18 ft
