Answer:
Y=1.88x
Step-by-step explanation:
x1=2 x2=3, y1=3.76 y2=5.64
(2, 3.76) (3, 5.64)
m(slope) =5.64-3.76/3-2
m=1.88
y-3.76=1.88(x-2)
y-3.76=1.88x-3.76
Y=1.88x
-4 (x - 5) + 3 (a - 7)
First, expand your problem. / Your problem should look like: -4x + 20 + 3a - 21
Second, simplify. / Your problem should look like: -4x + 3a - 1
Answer: -4x + 3a - 1 (C)
Answer:
We have that the sum of two numbers is 9
this can be written as:
x + y = 9
where x is the larger number.
Now we want to write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
First, remember that the difference between A and B is:
A - B
Then "the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
is:
"one more than the larger number" = ( x + 1)
"twice the smaller number" = 2*y
the difference between these is:
(x + 1) - 2*y
Now we can simplify:
We know that:
x + y = 9
then:
y = 9 - x
replacing that in the equation:
(x + 1) - 2*y
we would get:
x + 1 - 2*(9 - x)
x + 1 -18 + 2x
(x + 2x) + (1 - 18)
3x - 17
This means that we can write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
as: 3x - 17
Answer:
15 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of weeks = x.
At the end of x weeks,
Jeremy has 120 + 14x,
and Katie has 180 + 10x
We want to know when their amounts are equal.
120 + 14x = 180 + 10x
4x = 60
x = 15
Answer: 15 weeks
