Answer:
y=1/5x-31/5 (or y=0.2x-6.2 in decimals)
Step-by-step explanation:
x=5y-8 (original equation)
x+8=5y <u>(Addition Property of Equality)</u>
1/5x+8/5=y <u>(Division Property of Equality, </u><u>slope </u><u>of </u><u><em>original equation </em></u><u>is </u><u>1/5</u><u>)</u>
<u />
y-y1=m(x-x1) <u>(point-slope formula)</u>
y-(-5))=1/5(x-(6)) <u>(plug in the slope that was found earlier and the point given in the question)</u>
y+5=1/5(x-6)
y+5=1/5x-6/5 (Distributive Property of Multiplication) Note: 5 = 25/5
<u>y=1/5x-31/5</u> (Subtraction Property of Equality, and there's your answer)
<u>y=0.2x-6.2</u><em> </em>(This is the same answer, but written with decimals)
Substituting the value of X in each of the equations.The best answer would be the equation satisfying both of the sides.
Therefore,
Substituting the values in the second equation gives the best answer.
8(1.2)^2 + 34 = 45.52 centimeters
Answer:
of what?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The fish will be at a distance of 5 3/4 ft from the water surface at 4:00 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find a rational number that represents the position of the Fish at 4pm
Initially it was at a depth of 2 1/2 ft below the water surface
At 4pm, it went 3 1/4 ft further
Thus, its position with respect to the water surface at 4 pm will be;
2 1/2 + 3 1/4
= 5/2 + 13/4 = (10 + 13)/4 = 23/4 = 5 3/4 ft
