Simply substitute x for -3 and y for -5, creating the equation shown below:
-6 (-3 - 2(-5) )
Now that you have your values set up, now you can do the math by starting off with Multiplying -2 by -5, which will get you 10.
Now that you have the parenthesis simplified in the parenthesis, you can use the distributive property by multiplying all the numbers with -6, like so:
-6(-3+10)= 18 - 60, which simplifies to -42, in which (A) is your answer.
Think about this. What do the numbers in a coordinate stand for? They stand for X and Y. If you're trying to figure out what the X is, wouldn't you be solving for x? And didn't they just give you an equation? ;) First off, do you see how the "Y" value is given to you in the coordinate? All you have to do is substitute that 3 in for the "y" in the equation! 3=2x+5. Hey.... that looks like a simple equation! First, you need to subtract 5 from the other side of the equation. Now you're left with 2x=-2. Divide both sides by 2, and you get that x=-1. Now, just substitute that "x' value into the coordinate, and your answer should come out to be (-1, 3). :D
Average = no of hits / no of at-bats
0.296 = x / 446
0.296/ 446 = x
132.016
No of hits ≈ 132
Answer: is there suposed to be a symbol between the 2x and the 2?
Answer:
Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
from the graph: y<4
so option A and B are wrong.
also if we choose any points in the area, always x will be bigger than y. so x>y
