Hello: <span>
<span> an equation is : y =ax+b ( a is a slope )
parallel to the line (q) : y=6/5x-1 a =6/5 ( same slope
)
the equation of (r) : is : y = 6/5x+b</span></span>
the line through point (5,5) :
5= (6/5)(5)+b ...b=-1
an equation of (r) : is : y = 6/5x-1
or : 6/5x-y = 1
Answer: f(x) = x/2 + 4.
where f(x) is the number of stamps that Tom has, and x is the number of stamps that Myrna has.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is:
"Tom has four more than half the stamps that Myrna has"
For how is written, we can model the number of stamps that Tom has as a function f(x).
f(x) represents the number of stamps that Tom has, and x is the number of stamps that Myrna has.
Then:
"four more than a number" is written as:
N + 4 (where N is the number)
"Half the stamps that Myrna has" is written as:
x/2.
Then the whole statement can be modeled as:
f(x) = x/2 + 4.
notice that we have x/2, and f(x) must be a whole number, so Myrna must have an even number of stamps (in that case x/2 will be integer)
you're answer would be two hundred eighty eight
