Step-by-step explanation:
it's kinda confusing b/c of the minus signs.. huh... but -5 is less than -2 sooo
start with
-2 1/2 - (-5 3/4 )
=5 3/4 - 2 1/2
=5 3/4 - 2 2/4
=23/4 - 10/4
=13/4
there you go... :)
if you want it back in proper fractions
3 1/4

For every value tht x increases, y decreases by 3
-3x
Then to find the y intercept, look at 0's corresponding value (8)
-3x+8
Answer:
y=1/2x-10
Step-by-step explanation:
y=1/2x+b
-8=1/2(4)+b
-8=2+b
-10=b
y=1/2x-10
Dimensions of rectangle = 12 + x and 14 + x
(12 + x) (14 + x) = 288
x^2 + 26x + 168 = 288
x^2 + 26x - 120 = 0
(x + 30) (x - 4) = 0
x=-30, x =4
since 4 is positive
the dimensions increased by 4 feet
check the answer
12+4 = 16
14 +4 = 18
18*16 =288
