I would say D, remember a negative plus a negative is a positive.
Answer:20000
Step-by-step explanation:
30+1000+4000
(3) is the base of the new equation
(x + 5) is the answer of the new equation
(2) is the exponent on base (3)
;The new equation after simplifying is...,
; 3^2 = x + 5
; 9 = x + 5
; x = 9 - 5
;Hence...x = 4
I would think that all but one point would be on the line. One way to approach this problem is to find the equation of the line based upon any two points chosen at random, and then determine whether or not the other points satisfy this equation. Next time, would you please enclose the coordinates of each point inside parentheses: (2.5,14), (2.25,12), and so on, to avoid confusion.
14-12
slope of line thru 1st 2 points is m = ---------------- = 2/0.25 = 8
2.50-2.25
What is the eqn of the line: y = mx + b becomes
14 = (8)(2.5) + b; find b:
14-20 = b = -6. Then, y = 8x - 6.
Now determine whether (12,1.25) lies on this line.
Is 1.25 = 8(12) - 6? Is 1.25 = 90? No. So, unless I've made arithmetic mistakes, (1.25, 5) does not lie on the line thru (2.5,14) and (2.25,12).
Why not work this problem out yourself using my approach as a guide?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So first we combine like terms on the left
1-7=-6
then we have
-7x-6=15
next we add 6 both sides
-7x-6=15
+6 +6
-7x=21
then we divide -7 each side
we get
x=-3
