Answer:

The solution to the equation \frac{1}{4}x+2=\frac{-5}{8}x-5 is \mathbf{x=-8}

Option A is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the solution to the equation \frac{1}{4}x+2=\frac{-5}{8}x-5

Solving the equation

\frac{1}{4}x+2=\frac{-5}{8}x-5

Subtracting 2 on both sides

\frac{1}{4}x+2-2=\frac{-5}{8}x-5-2\\\frac{1}{4}x=\frac{-5}{8}x-7

Adding 5/8x  on both sides

\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{5}{8}x=\frac{-5}{8}x-7+\frac{5}{8}x\\\frac{2x+5x}{8}=-7 \\\frac{7x}{8}=-7

Multiply both sides by 8/7

\frac{7x}{8}\times \frac{8}{7}=-7  \times \frac{8}{7}\\x=-8

So, we get x = -8

The solution to the equation \frac{1}{4}x+2=\frac{-5}{8}x-5 is \mathbf{x=-8}

Option A is correct option.

What is the average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 4?
hammer [34]
1) find the corresponding y values for when x = 0 and when x = 4,
when x = 0, y = 4
when x = 4, y = 4

the coordinates are (0,4) and (4,4)

2) to calculate the average rate of change, find the slope of the two points:

(0,4) (4,4)

(change in y) 4 - 4 = 0
(change in x) 4 - 0 = 4

0/4 = 0

the average rate of change is 0!

7nadin3 [17]

slope is $0.10            <em>($1.00 per 10 tokens = $0.10)</em>

y-intercept is $60    <em>($60 is the annual fee)</em>

y = .10x + 60            <em>(y = mx + b)</em>  

domain is x ≥ 0        <em>(you can't buy a negative number of token)</em>

range is y ≥ 60        <em>(input the domain (x ≥ 0) to find the range)</em>

Answer: the y-intercept of the function is $60
