Increased by 15
past score was x
increased by 15 means he raised to 15+x
it was raised to 83%
therefor
x+15=83
first option is right (and first test was 68%)
Answer: 5x + 2y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Change 5x+2y=12 to slope intercept: 2y = 12 - 5x, y = -5x/2 + 6
A parallel line has the same slope, so the line we try to find is y = -5x/2 + b.
Substitute (-2, 4) in and get 4=5+b, so b = -1.
Therefore the answer is y = -5x/2 - 1, or if you want it in the original form it would be 2y = -5x - 2 ---> 5x+2y = -2.

-2 -13.8x = -8 -6x -1
First, I distributed the negative 1 that was outside of the parentheses to the positive 6x and the positive 1.
-2 -13.8x = -9 -6x
Then I added the negative 8 to the negative 1 which equals negative 9.
-2 -13.8x +6x = -9 -6x +6x
After that I used the addition property and added a positive 6x to both sides.
-2 -7.8x = -9
Then simplifying.
+2 -2 -7.8x = -9 +2
After simplifying, I used the addition property again, adding a positive 2 to both sides.
-7.8x = -7
Simplified.
-7.8x (-1) = -7 (-1)
Then I multiplied both sides by with a negative 1 since the variable cannot be a negative.
7.8x = 7
Simplified
(1/7.8) 7.8x = (1/7.8) 7
Then, to isolate the veriable, I multiplied 1/7.8 to both sides.
x = 1.11428571429
The answer !
I hope this helped !
Answer:
Nicole drove 66 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can set of an equation of 45 - x = 111 x representing the amount of miles Nicole drove. You would subtract 45 from both 45 and 111 and get that x = 66.
Probability is 0/12 since there are no blue lollipops in the bag.
