Answer:

y = -5/4x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line we are supposed to find is parallel to y = -5/4x - 5 that means they are going to have the same slope. The line we are looking for is of the following type: y = -5/4 x + b

Since it passes through the point (-8,4):

4 = -5/4 * (-8) + b <=>

4 = -2 + b <=>

4 + 2 = b <=>

b = 6

Hence the line is going to be: y = -5/4x + 6

Which function below has the lowest y intercept?
neonofarm [45]

Our first function is g(x). <em>Al had two dozen donuts </em>means that <em>two dozen</em> is the y-intercept of this function. A dozen equals 12, therefore two dozens is 24. <em>Every cubicle he passed, he lost 2 donuts </em>is the slope of the function and it is negative, that is -2, thus:


g(x)=-2x+24 \\ \\ \boxed{y-intercept = 24}


The second equation is h(x):


h(x)=6x+1

So:

\boxed{y-intercept=1}


From the graph, we can see that the f(x) intersects the y-axis at:


\boxed{y-intercept=2}


Accordingly, h(x) has the lowest y intercept.


<em>In conclusion, the right answer is c.h(x)</em>

Find the error in the solution, and then solve it correctly.
melamori03 [73]

We could find the error first, but if we solve the equation, we can compare our answers to find the error. So,

7x + 12 + 3x = 8

10x + 12 = 8

10x = -4

x = -4/10

x = -2/5.

When we compare the two, we see that our second line is vastly different, and we can easily isolate the mistake, finding that it occurs when they disregard the variable in the 3x term and subtract 8 by 3 rather than combining the terms 3x and 7x together.

Explain how you can mentally determine whether there is a remainder when 18,450 is divided by 6
djyliett [7]
For a number to be divisible by 6, it must also be divisible by 2 and 3. Therefore, we need to check if a number is even and then check if the sum of the digits is divisible by 3.

alexdok [17]

Answer:

9 Part-time employees

36 full-time employee

Step-by-step explanation:

20% multiply by 45 = 9

80% multioly by 45 =36

therefore to check if your answers are correct add 9 + 36 which gives you 45, the total number of employees in each company's four department.
