Answer:
<h2>A) y = -5x - 8</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of an equation of a line:
m - slope
(x₁, y₁) - point on a line
We have the slope m = -5, and the point (-1, -3). Substitute:
Convert to the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b):
<em>use the distributive property</em>
<em>subtract 3 from both sides</em>
Answer:
state A = 32 votes, state B = 53 votes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of electoral votes for state A be a and state B be b
a = b - 21
a + b = 85
Substituting a for b - 21 in the second equation
2b - 21 = 85
2b = 106
b = 53
Plugging b back in
85 - 53 = 32
Answer:
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+5=15
-5 -5
________
2x+0=10
2x= 10
__ __
2 2 the 2 small lines just mean ÷
x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
In my opinion Option A is the correct answer because
Product of 3 and x = 3x
7.5 more than that = 3x + 7.5
