Answer:

In this equation x is equal to h + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, follow the order of operations for solving equations.

(6x-4h) = 10 + 4(1.5 + 0.5x) ----> Distribute the 4

(6x - 4h) = 10 - 6 + 2x ----> Simplify

6x - 4h = 4 + 2x ----> Subtract 4 from both sides

6x - 4h - 4 = 2x ----->Subtract 6x from both sides

-4h - 4 = -4x ----> Divide by -4

h + 1 = x

Original price 195 sale price 136.50 what is percent discount

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

30%.

First find the difference between the two prices.

195 - 136.5 = 58.5

Next find percent of difference over original cost.

58.5/195 = 0.30

The percent discount is 30%.

To check:

195 * 0.70 = 136.5 <---------- CORRECT.

What is true of the graph of two lines 3y-8=-5x and 6y=-10x+16

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Both lines are equal (they are the same)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$3y - 8 = -5x$

$6y = -10x + 16$

Required

What is true about graph of both lines

<em>Questions like this are better solved when there's option(s) to select from. However, some of the properties of line equation that I'll consider are to check if both lines are either parallel or perpendicular</em>

<em />

To do this,

The first thing to do is to calculate the slope of both lines

$3y - 8 = -5x$

Add 8 to both sides

$3y - 8 + 8 = -5x + 8$

$3y = -5x + 8$

Divide both sided by 3

$\frac{3y}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

The slope of the line is the coefficient of x;

$Slope = -\frac{5}{3}$

Solve for the y intercept; <em>Let x = 0</em>

$y = -\frac{5 * 0}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = 0 + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = \frac{8}{3}$

Solve for the x intercept; <em>Let y = 0</em>

$0 = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

Subtract $\frac{8}{3}$ from both sides

$0 - \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3} - \frac{8}{3}$

$- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3}$

Subtract both sides by $-\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} * -\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{3}{5} * \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{8}{5} = x$

$x = \frac{8}{5}$

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$6y = -10x + 16$

Divide both sides by 6

$\frac{6y}{6} = -\frac{10x}{6} + \frac{16}{6}$

$y = -\frac{10x}{6} + \frac{16}{6}$

Simplify fractions to lowest term

$y = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

The slope of the line is the coefficient of x;

$Slope = -\frac{5}{3}$

Solve for the y intercept; <em>Let x = 0</em>

$y = -\frac{5 * 0}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = 0 + \frac{8}{3}$

$y = \frac{8}{3}$

Solve for the x intercept; <em>Let y = 0</em>

$0 = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3}$

Subtract $\frac{8}{3}$ from both sides

$0 - \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} + \frac{8}{3} - \frac{8}{3}$

$- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3}$

Subtract both sides by $-\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = -\frac{5x}{3} * -\frac{3}{5}$

$-\frac{3}{5}*- \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{3}{5} * \frac{8}{3} = x$

$\frac{8}{5} = x$

$x = \frac{8}{5}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By comparing the slope, x intercept and y intercept of both lines;

It'll be observed that they have the same slope, x intercept and y intercept

<em>This implies that both lines are equal; in other words, they are the same.</em>
