A mile is 5280 feet so you do 5 times 5280 to get 26400.
Method A: 7.6666.... = 7 + 0.6666... = 7 + 2/3 = 21/3 + 2/3 = 23/3
Method B: 10(7.666...) - 1(7.666...) = 76.666... - 7.666... = 69.000...
(10 - 1)(7.666...) = 69
7.666... = 69/9 = 23/3
When x=0, y=-8, so that is the y-intercept.
When x increases by 1, y decreases by 2, so the slope is -2.
The equation of the function is
.. y = -2x -8
A number considered in relative relation to a whole number.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 
be the greater number and 
be the smaller number. We know that their difference is 15, so we have
Then, we have the following information: if we add twice the greater (2x) and 8 (2x+8), the result is 3 times the lesser (3y) minus four (3y-4). So, we have
So, we have the follwing system:
From the first equation, we can derive 
, and substitute this expression in the second equation to get
Substitute this value for y in the first equation to get
