Answer:
the second choice is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y =
x - 9 is in this form
with slope m = 
• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence
y =
x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line
To find c substitute (- 8, - 18) into the partial equation
- 18 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 18 + 6 = - 12
y =
x - 12 ← equation of parallel line
Answer:
66 2/3 %
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the students not in the 8th grade
24 - 8 = 16
16 students are not in the 8th grade
Take the fraction of the students not in the 8th grade over the total
16/24 = 2/3
Change to a decimal
.66666666666
Multiply by 100 to change to a percent
66.666666%
66 2/3 %
Answer:
(3,-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the system of equations:

As directed, add straight down. The y-variable will cancel:

Now, divide both sides by 5. The left cancels:

So x is 3.
Now, substitute 3 for x in either of the equations:

Substitute 3 for x:

Multiply:

Subtract 9 from both sides:

So, our answer is: x=3, y=-1 or (3,-1).
And we are done :)
Answer:
as a fraction 1/4 as a decimal .25
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
15.75
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know 5% is 1/20 out of 100 (20x5=100) so then we need to set up the equation to find how much 5% of 15 is. Which is .75 cents. So we then add the 75 cents to the already $15 shipping fee to get an answer of 15 dollars and seventy five cents.
