-1 Let's say the set of downs starts at the 20 yard line (maybe the kicking team kicked deep, the receiving team took a knee and so play starts at the 20).
Ok - we're at the 20. First down - they advance 5 yards. So we're now at the 25. We can write that mathematically as:
20
+
5
=
25
So the second play they get sacked deep and lose 6 yards. So we subtract 6:
25
−
6
=
19
So what's the change in yardage for the 2 plays? We are on the 19 and started at the 20, so we can write:
19
−
20
=
−
1
and this makes sense because we know we advanced 5 and fell back 6

NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE WITH #9 and #10!!

9) Because the total number of pencils is 180 and you will use them up in 30 days, the equation will have to equal 0 total pencils when 30 is substituted in for the time factor, or x. This already takes our choice 3 because it doesn’t meet this criteria.
The answer to how many pencils in 20 days could be answered by plugging in 20 for x. Choice 4 cannot work because it results in a negative number of pencils. Choices 1 and 2 use the same equation, so by plugging in 20 it is clear choice 2 is the correct answer.

10) A line parallel to the go en equation would have the same slope, -3, which means choices 1 and 4 are out. Plug in (-2,5) into both choices 2 and 3. Plugging -2 into x in choice 2 gives -5, and in choice 3 gives 5 for the y value. Therefore choice 3 is correct.

Using the slope formula, find the slope of the line through the given points.<br> (1,6) and (3,4)
svlad2 [7]
To find slope you do y2-y1 over x2-x1. So 4-6 is -2. And 3-1 is 2. So -2/2 is -1. The slope is -1.
