Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for line of slope -6 that passes through (0,-2):

y+2 = -6(x-0)

y = -6x - 2

Plug in (g,-8) and solve for g:

-8 = -6g - 2

g = 1

Answer:

c^3 + c^2 - 7c + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

First, expand the expression using distributive property.

c^2(c+4) - 3c(c+4) + 5(c+4)

c^3 + 4c^2 - 3c^2 - 12c + 5c + 20

Lastly, simplify like terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3.5x + 15 = -1.5

5.5x + 15 = -1.5

5.5x = -16.5

x = -3

y = 3.5(-3) + 15

Answer:

Percentage score will be 83.33 %

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given Antonette gets 70 % on 10 problem test

Let consider here here total problem = total marks

So marks get 10 10 problem test = 10×0.7 = 7

Marks get in 20 problem test = 20×0.8 = 16

And marks get in 30 problem test = 30×0.9 = 27

Now total marks get get by Antonette = 7 +16 + 27 = 50

And total marks = 60

So percentage score of Antonette $=\frac{50}{60}\times 100=83.33$ %
