Comparing the coefficients: a=16
Answer: The value of a in the polynomial is 16
In standard form the two equations are
7x +y = 5
7x +y = -5
The equations describe lines that are parallel.
Answer:
X=4
Step-by-step explanation:
2X - 10 = -2
2X = 8
X = 8/2
X = 4

Answer:
The y-intercept of the line is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You could try to find the slope of the line and then find the intercept with y axis by sloving b = y - ax
But here it seems easy enough once you see that the x values in the table increase by a factor of 8 and the y values in the table increase by a factor of 20.
(By the way, this is enough to give you the slope, because it is 8/20 ). But why bother?
Just extrapolate the table to the left, and you will find the y value where x = 0
x 0 8 16 24 32
y 2 22 44 64 84
So the y-intercept of the line is 2.
Extra:
The full equation of the line is:
y = 8/20x + 2
0.25x-8=16 add 8 to both sides. you get 0.25x=8. divide by .25 on each side x=32
