Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
If it gives a result of -4 then our equation will have .... = -4
If we subtract 9 from the quotient of a number and 5 we have x/5 - 9
Our equation is:
x/5 - 9 = -4 add 9 to both sides
x/5 = -4 + 9
x/5 = 5 multiply both sides by 5
x = 5(5)
x = 25
Check: 25/5 - 9 = 5-9 = -4
Answer checks as correct from information given
Answer:
21x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Jamal-3 x 3 = 9 x 4 = 36
Andy- 4 x 2 = 8 x 5 = 45
Andy's surface area is bigger.
Lines that are parallel have the same slope, and the given line (y = 6x - 5) has a slope of 6; we are looking for a line with a slope of 6.
To form an equation for a line, you need to know the y-intercept (the point at which the line intersects the y-axis). The first step to finding the y-intercept is to plot the given point. After you've done that, count six units up (this is our slope) and one to the right; plot the point. Lastly, draw the line by connecting the points and see where the line intersects the y-axis.
My graph shows that the line intersects the y-axis at -17. All that's left now is to put our information together into an equation. I'm assuming the problem wants the equation in slope-intercept form; slope-intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, so it would look like this:
y = 6x -17
Hope this helps.
