Answer:
-3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Move the 3x over to the side with the 3 so it will become a -3x now you have 4y=-3x+3 now you have to remove the 4 from the y so now you have y=-3/4x+3/4 so you slope will be -3/4
Answer:
The dependent variable is n i think because the hwole problem depends on n
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: <u>4 pounds</u> of brand X sugar
====================================================
Reason:
n = number of pounds of brand X sugar
5n = cost of buying those n pounds, at $5 per pound
Brand Y costs $2 per pound, and you buy 8 lbs of it, so that's another 2*8 = 16 dollars.
5n+16 = total cost of brand X and brand Y combined
n+8 = total amount of sugar bought, in pounds
3(n+8) = total cost because we buy n+8 pounds at $3 per pound
The 5n+16 and 3(n+8) represent the same total cost.
Set them equal to each other. Solve for n.
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5n+16 = 3n+24
5n-3n = 24-16
2n = 8
n = 8/2
n = 4 pounds of brand X sugar are needed
-------------
Check:
n = 4
5n = 5*4 = 20 dollars spent on brand X alone
16 dollars spent on brand Y mentioned earlier
20+16 = 36 dollars spent total
n+8 = 4+8 = 12 pounds of both types of sugar brands combined
3*12 = 36 dollars spent on both types of sugar brands
The answer is confirmed.
--------------
Another way to verify:
5n+16 = 3(n+8)
5*4+16 = 3(4+8)
20+16 = 3(12)
36 = 36
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation: You have to do 5x5 because 5^2 mans there is two fives. Then you just subtract two
5x5=25
25-2=23
Answer: D: 17.3
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe its D because the house and the ground is a 90 degree angle, and at 60 degree angle is a 20 foot ladder. alright then 90 plus 60 = 150 degrees.
then add the twenty foot ladder with each choice for the answer:
A: 20 + 6.1 = 26.1
B: 20 + 10.0 = 30
C: 20 + 14.1 = 34.1
D: 20 + 17.3 = 37.3
The answer would be D because it is the closer number to 150. Because it says " which is the closest height up the house the ladder reaches?" The answer is D the closest number. I HOPE THIS HELPS YOU! =D
