Answer:

$x=\frac{13}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the answer to this question you need to subtract and divide on both sides.

$5x + 15 = 28$

Minus 15 on both sides:

$28-15=13$

$5x=13$

Divide 5 on both sides:

$13\div5=\frac{13}{5}$

$x=\frac{13}{5}$

Hope this helps.

Two separate linear functions are expressed by the graph and by the equation. Select all that apply.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

First option: The slope is negative for both functions.

Fourth option: The graph and the equation expressed are equivalent functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The missing graph is attached.</h3><h3> </h3>

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Given the equation:

$y=-4x-4$

We can identify that:

$m=-4\\b=-4$

Notice that the slope is negative.

We can observe in the graph that y-intercept of the other linear function is:

$b=-4$

Then, we can substitute this y-intercept and the coordinates of a point on that line, into $y=mx+b$ and solve for "m".

Choosing the point $(-2,4)$ , we get:

$4=m(-2)-4\\\\4+4=-2m\\\\m=-4$

Notice that the slope is negative.

Therefore, since the lines have the same slope and the same y-intercept, we can conclude that they are equivalent.

David wants to hang a mirror in his room. The mirror and frame must have an area of 8 square feet. The mirror is 2 feet wide and

Agata [3.3K]

The correct quadratic equation;
x2+7x-2=0

Working
Assuming the frame has a uniform thickness;
Then length of mirror and frame is 3+x and width 2+x

The area of mirror and frame area;
A=L*W
8=(3+x)(2+x)
8=(6+5x+x2)
Taking 8 to the Right hand side, we have:
x2+5x-2 =0
