The answer would be 34/100 or 17/50 if reduced .
Answer:
−8x − 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the expression:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x)
Operate the parentheses. Each term changes its signs because the minus sign represents a -1:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 7 - 5x - 3 - 5x
Collect like terms:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 7 - 3 -5x - 5x
Simplify:
7 - 5x - (3 + 5x) = 4 - 10x
Answer: 4 - 10x
<span>The graph which shows a decreasing function is the graph that has a negative slope</span>
For the top right: it is positive slope
For the lower one: it has a zero slope
It is the top left which has a negative slope and represents a decreasing function <span />
