Answer:
B. y=(x-1500)/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Monthly budget = x dollars
Monthly mortgage = $1500
Recreational activities = 1/4 of remaining budget
Amount in dollar spent on recreational activities =
(Monthly budget - monthly mortgage) * 1/4
(x - 1500) * 1/4
Hence,
y = (x - 1500) / 4
Let x be the number.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
Given:
Point( 7, 5)
x = 7 and y=5
slope(m) = 1
We need to first find the intercept.
Substitute x=7, y=5 and m=1 into y=mx + b and solve for intercept(b)
5 = 1(7) + b
5 = 7 + b
5 - 7 = b
-2 = b
Now, form the equation by substituting the value of the slope and intercept into y=mx + b
y = x - 2
