Answer
y = (1/4)x - 5 or 4y - x + 20 = 0
Explanation
To get the rule required, we interpret the sentence and write it in a mathematical form.
5 less than one fourth of x is y
one fourth of x ⇒ (1/4)x
5 less than one fourth of x is y ⇒ (1/4)x - 5 = y
y = (1/4)x - 5
4y = x - 20
4y - x + 20 = 0
8/5x = 1
or
1.6x = 1
Work:
Add 7/3x and 1/3x to make 8/3x. Equation: 8/3x = 1 + 5/3x
Divide 8/3x by 5/3x, looks like 8 over 3 times 3 over 5. 3s cancel each other out, leaving 8/5x. Equation: 8/5x = 1
If needed to be simplified, 8/5 = 1.6.
C = 3.5t....when t = 15
c = 3.5(15)
c = 52.50 <==
