Answer:

5y = 4x-25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f(x) be regarded as y

So we have two points

(5,-1) and (0,-5)

We start by finding the slope of the line connecting the two points

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = -5+1/0-5 = -4/-5 = 4/5

The general equation of a straight line is;

y = mx + b

where m

is slope and b is the y-intercept

we already have the slope as 4/5

So;

y = 4x/5 + b

To get b, substitute one of the points

Let us use (0,-5)

-5 = 4(0)/5 + b

so b = -5

The equation is;

y = 4x/5 - 5

Multiply through by 5

5y = 4x - 25

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The first one, an=n-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the linear equation is 1. You can notice the y intercept would be -2, therefore the equation is an=n-2.

You receive an inheritance of $15,500, and you place the full amount into a bank account. The bank pays a simple interest rate o
g100num [7]
To solve this we need to figure out what 7.5% of 15,500 is. (It’s 1162.5). Now we know that after one year it is a total of 16,662.5. We then figure out what 7.5% of 16,662.5 is, which is 1,249.6875. You then add that to 16,662.5 which comes out to 17,912.1875. We then figure out 7.5% of that is 1,343.4140625. We then add that to the last total which is 19,255.6015625 and we simplify that to 19,256 and we find out that the final total is $19,256. But it wants how much have we earned which means we need to subtract the original from the new, which is 3756 and we add a unit.

Meaning the final answer is $3,756.

Answer:

C. In step 2, Cindy should have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll go through the equation correctly, and then point out what would have happened.

3 = x/2 - 5

Add 5 to both sides. -5 and 5 cancel out.

8 = x/2

What Cindy should have done here is multiply by 2, not divide by 2. It is important to remember that you do the INVERSE operation to cancel out a number.

What would have happened here is that we have an extra step (though either way we still end up with x being 16.)

Correct Step 2:

Multiply both sides by 2. x/2 and 2x cancel out.

x = 16

Incorrect Step 2:

8/2 = (x/2)/2

4 = x/4

Multiply both sides by 4 (this would be the extra step!).

16 = x
