Let x = your number.
(x - 17) * -7 = -35. Divide each side by -7.
(x - 17) = 5. Add 17 to each side.
x = 22.
Your number is 22
Answer: y + 4 = -3(x+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to rewrite in form of y=mx+b.
3x+y=5
y = -3x + 5
The slope is -3.
In addition, the slope of two parallel line would be equal, the slope of the line would be -3.
y- y1 = m(x- x1)
y- (-4) = -3(x - -1)
y + 4 = -3(x+1)
A real word problem could be that max has 3/4 of a chocolate bar and he wants to divide the chocolate with 1/6 of her class. If he does that, how much will each person get?
a+2 a +1
= ------- / ------------------
a -5 (a - 3)(a - 5)
a+2 (a - 3)(a - 5)
= ------- * ------------------
a -5 a +1
(a+2)(a - 3)
= ----------------
a +1
a NOT equal 5 and -1
This is actually quiet easy!
(23.80/140) x 100 = (0.17) x 100 = 17%
That's how you do it! Hope this helps!
