Answer: Try D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
1-3x=-5-x
-1 +x
-2x/-2=-6/-2
x=3
Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!
For the first problem, the answer is D, because every year, the graph goes down by about $4,500.
For problem two,
a. It's located in quadrant one because x and y are both positive (I've attached a graph with labeled quadrants for reference)
I'm unsure about b and c but I hope I helped with the others!
To find the rate of change, or slope, pick two points. The slope, is change in y coordinates over change in x coordinates.

.
In this case, the slope is

.
Remember that subtracting a negative number equals adding the number without the negative sign.
a-(-b) = a+b
Now for the y-intercept. The y-intercept is where the graph intersects the y-axis, where x = 0.
You have the coordinate (0, -1), where x = 0. So the y-intercept is -1.
Putting these values into the slope-intercept form y = mx+b, the equation is
y = -5x - 1
to find the area of a rectangle is LxW=A
plug in the given numbers you have
L = 7
W = x-8
A = 42
7 * x-8 = 42
7x-56= 42
solve for X
