4x = 3y - 8
4 4
x = ³/₄y - 2
-16x + 4y = 32
-16(³/₄y - 2) + 4y = 32
-16(³/₄y) + 16(2) + 4y = 32
-12y + 32 + 4y = 32
-12y + 4y + 32 = 32
-8y + 32 = 32
- 32 - 32
-8y = 0
-8 -8
y = 0
x = ³/₄y - 2
x = ³/₄(0) - 2
x = 0 - 2
x = -2
(x, y) = (-2, 0)

Explanation:</h2>
The complete question is in a comment above. The statements says that:
- Sean wrote the equation

is the cost per pound.- The equation show the relationships between the total cost, $9.25, and the number of pounds of pears.
So we are asked to write an write an equation to show the cost y of x pounds of pears. In other words, we need to write an equation such that y is given in terms of x, where x is the pounds of pears. So:

From the equation we can determine
as:

So each pound costs $1.85. The equation tells us that 5 pounds of pears result costs $9.25. Then, by proportion:

So choosing the number of pounds as 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, the table would be:

From the table we can know that the graph is a line. that passes through all these points. Since this line passes through the origin, then y varies directly as x (Direct Proportion).
100 < 50(1.12)t
2 < (1.12)t
ln 2 < t ln (1.12)
0.6931 < t(0.1133)
6.117 < t
Answer:
y = 1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the direct variation equation y = kx, and solve for k:
y = kx
-10 = k(40)
-0.25 = k
So, the equation is y = -0.25x. Solve for y when x = -5
y = -0.25x
y = -0.25(-5)
y = 1.25
So, y = 1.25 when x = -5
Answer:
1140
Step-by-step explanation:
A decagon has 10 sides so substitute it like this:
(n-2) x 180
(10-2) x 180
8 x 180= 1140
