Hello! :)
Use the exponential rule:
Use this property in this scenario:
Simplify:
Write 3 four times and multiple them together. Then, write out 5 two times and multiple it together. Whatever those two answers are, subtract them
Answer:
y = -5x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y - 6 = -5 (x + 1)
distribute -5 (x + 1) by multiplying
y - 6 = -5x - 5
than add 6 to both sides
y = -5x + 1
1) Name the variables:
A: number of model cars Andre has
P: number of model cars Peter has
J: number of model cars Jade has.
2) Statements:
<span>Andre
has 4 times as many model cars as Peter: A = 4 P
Peter has one-third as
many model cars as Jade: P = J / 3
Andre has 36 model cars: A = 36
3) Write and solve an
equation to find how many model cars Peter has.
A = 4P => A/4 = P
=> P = A / 4
=> P = 36 / 4 = 8
4) Using your answer from
part a, write and solve an equation to find how many model cars Jade has.
P = J / 3 => J = 3P
=> J = 3 (8) = 24
