The answer to this would be x-(x+14)
Here's an explanation:
Let x represent the unknown number. The problem says that x has been decreased by the sum of x and 14. So, to put this in a form of an equation, it would be x-(x+14), since you have to do the addition first before you can subtract the two number since you don't know what x is. This equation is equal to -14 no matter what x is.

Answer:
y=-5/2x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
find the slope by using y2-y1/x2-x1
-1-19/2-(-4)
simplify
-20/8
simplify
-5/2
use slope-intercept form, y=mx+b
since we know the slope, find b
plug in one of the ordered pairs into the equation
-1=(-5/2)(2)+b
simplify
-1= -10/2+b
simplify
-1=-5+b
add 5 to both sides
b=4
plug b into y=-5/2x+b
y=-5/2x+4
125% as a fraction is 1 25/100 and in decimal form it is 1.25.
