We have the following equation:
x2 + 4x = - (y2 - 20)
Let's review step by step:
step 1:
x2 + 4x = -y2 + 20
Answer: OK
step 2:
x2 + 4x + 4 = -y2 + 20 - 4
Answer: Wrong
The correct step is:
x2 + 4x - 4 = -y2 + 20 - 4
Or equivalently:
x2 + 4x + 4 = -y2 + 20 + 4
Answer:
he did make an error in his work in step 2
The slope is 2/-2, so -1. The y-intercept is 2. So, y=-x+2
None of the answer choices makes any sense. (You should have your teacher show you how to select the correct choice.)

Answers that are closer to the plotted points are ...
... A = -0.9, B = -9/16, C = -0.4, D = -1/16
The attachment shows these points plotted. As you can see, even these values aren't quite right.
Answer:
B 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
This is right
Answer:
C. 5n = 8n + 30
Step-by-step explanation:
5 times a number = 5n
30 more than 8 times a number = 30 + 8n
If those expressions are equal, then:
5n = 8n + 30
