Isn't this a subtraction problem, not a multiplication problem?
If John starts out with 20 fish and lets 6 go, he still has (20-6), or 14, fish.
Answer:
To see if a table of values represents a linear function, check to see if there's a constant rate of change. If there is, you're looking at a linear function!
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that both triangles are an exact copy of one another, it is safe to assume that 3y-7 is equal to 41. Set up an equation
3y-7=41
Add 7 to both sides
3y=48
Divide both sides by 3
y=16
Now to find PN.
Based on what we know, we can assume that MP = PN. Let's make some equations!
MP = 17x-8 PN = 11x+4
17x-8 = 11x+4
Subtract 11x from both sides
6x-8 = 4
Add 8 to both sides
6x = 12
Divide by 2
x=2
Substitute 2 in for x in the equation for PN
11(2)+4
Multiply 11 by 2
22+4 = 26
PN = 26

2y = -4x - 6
y = - 2x - 3
slope = -2
