Answer: x= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you take 4 and times it to x and -1, so 4 times x will just be 4x while 4 times -1 will be -4. Then it will look like this (4x - 4), you will have to make the x by itself and to do that is dividing it by 4 on both sides, so 4x/4= x while -4/4= -1. The answer is x= -1

Kesia knows that 1/4=0.25. Explain how she could use this fact to determine the decimal equivalent of 5/8

STatiana [176]

She knows that
$0.25 = \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{8}$
$\frac{5}{8} = \frac{2}{8} + \frac{2}{8} + \frac{1}{8} = \\ 0.25 + 0.25 + \frac{0.25}{2} = \\ 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.125 = 0.625$

subtract 3
y = -3
then
f(x) = -3
