<h3>Answer: -4x+5y = 100</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

The given equation is the same as -4x+5y = 10

It is of the form Ax+By = C, where A = -4, B = 5, C = 10

Anything parallel to Ax+By = C is of the form Ax+By = D. The only difference is the C has changed to a D.

This means anything parallel to -4x+5y = 10 is -4x+5y = D, where D is not equal to 10, but it could be any other number.

Plug in the coordinates of (-15,8) to find the value of D

-4x+5y = D

-4(-15)+5(8) = D

60+40 = D

100 = D

D = 100

We have -4x+5y = D update to -4x+5y = 100

The equation -4x+5y = 100 is parallel to -4x+5y = 10, and it goes through (-15,8)

Parallel lines have the same slope, but different y intercepts.

Note how Ax+By = C has a slope of m = -B/A. This means A cannot be zero.

Answer:

$w = 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

ST = w + 6,

PR = w

From the diagram given, we can deduce that PR is the midsegment of ∆QST. Therefore, according to the midsegment theorem:

PR = ½ of ST

Plug in the values into the equation and solve for w.

$w = \frac{1}{2}(w + 6)$

$w = \frac{w}{2} + 3$ (distributive property of equality)

$w - 3 = \frac{w}{2}$ (subtraction property of equality)

$2(w - 3) = \frac{w}{2}*2$ (multiplication property of equality)

$2w - 6 = w$

$2w - 6 - 2w= w - 2w$ (subtraction property of equality)

$- 6 = - w$

Divide both sides by -1

$6 = w$

$w = 6$

Consider Akelia’s sequence 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, ….

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

It would be 20

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, the sequence starts from 5 and increases by three each time. In fact, one possible formula for that sequence could be:

$a_n=3n+2\hspace{10}n\in N$

Let's confirm the formula by evaluating the first 6 terms:

$a_1=3(1)+2=3+2=5\\a_2=3(2)+2=6+2=8\\a_3=3(3)+2=9+2=11\\a_4=3(4)+2=12+2=14\\a_5=3(5)+2=15+2=17\\a_6=3(6)+2=18+2=20$

14 less than 8 times a number is 3 more than 4 times the number. What is the number?

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

x = 17/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number

8x-14 = 4x+3

Subtract 4x from each side

8x -14-4x = 4x+3-4x

4x-14 = 3

Add 14 to each side

4x-14+14 = 3+14

4x = 17

Divide by 4

4x/4 = 17/4

x = 17/4
