Answer:

-13

Step-by-step explanation:

This is just a matter of simplifying.

x = 8-(-4)^2-5

Let's get rid of the exponent.

x = 8 - 16 - 5

x = -13

You can check if this is correct.

The tricky part is the -(-4)^2.

You have to solve the -4^2 first, instead of the parenthesis.

Fill in the table using this function rule y=27-4x

Elis [28]

Step 1: Y= 27 - 4x

To find X - intercept / zero, substitute Y = 0

0 = 27 - 4x

Step 2: 0 = 27 - 4x

Move variable to the left-hand side and change it's sign.

4x = 27

Step 3: 4x = 27

divide both sides of the equation by 4

X = 27/4

solution: X = 27/4

Alternate form: X = 6 3/4, X = 6.75

Find an equation of the line described below. Write the equation is slope-intercept from ( solved for y), when possible. Through

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The equation of the line that is passing through the point (5,4) and is parallel to x-axis would be $y=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the line passes through the point (5,4).

As the line is parallel to the x-axis, the slope of the line would be zero.

And we have point (5,4) from which the line is passing.

So, $x_1=5\ ,\ y_1=4\ and\ m=0$

The equation of the line passing through point $(x_1,y_1)$ is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-4=0(x-5)\\y-4=0\\y=4$

So, the equation of the line that is passing through the point (5,4) and is parallel to x-axis would be $y=4$

Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8 (As an equation)

Firlakuza [10]

10(0.5x + 6) = 8
5x + 60 = 8
5x = 8 - 60
5x = -52
x = -52/5
x = -10.4
