X=20
If they're parallel the other number in the same spot as 5x+15 equals that, so 5x+15=115 because if they are parallel they're the same if same spot and same line going through them.
115-15 = 100
5x=100
Divide by 5 both sides
X=20
If x=20 then these lines would be parallel
Answer:
x=-3 and y=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
add the two equations, so 6x-6x, -6y-3y, and 0+27 to get -9y=27. y ends up equaling -3. plug negative 3 into the either of the equations and solve for x, which ends up being -3
Using a geometric sequence, it is found that the approximate value of the car at the end of the 10th year will be given by:
A. $6,974.
<h3>What is a geometric sequence?</h3>
A geometric sequence is a sequence in which the result of the division of consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio q.
The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:
In which 
is the first term.
In this problem, the first term and the common ratio are given, respectively, by:
Hence the equation is:
At the end of the 10th year, the value will be of:
Hence option A is correct.

When we say two quantities 
and 
are proportional to one another, there are two ways we could mean this.
- If is *directly* proportional to , then we mean that as changes, changes in the same direction. In other words, if is in/decreased, then also in/decreases. The rate of in/decrease doesn't have to be one-to-one; for example, we could have increase by 1 unit while would proportionally increase by 5 units. In this case, we'd have 
.
- On the other hand, if is *inversely* proportional to , then a change in results in a change in that goes in the opposite direction. A common example involves taking a rectangle of constant area and adjusting the width and length . If the rectangle has an area of 5 square units, then we could have 
and 
, or we could have 
and 
, or 
and 
, or any combination of and such that 
is satisfied.
In both cases, we call 5 the "constant of proportionality".
On to your exercises:
(1a) Looks like 
stands for number of apples. Then we're told that the cost 
, which means that for every apple, the cost increases by 2.3 dollars. So the constant of proportionality is 2.3. In the language of proportionality, we could then say that the cost of apples is directly proportional to the number of apples by a factor of 2.3.
(1b) 5.4
(1c) 12.5
It should be 17, 26, 35, 44, 53
