Answer:

s=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2s-2=-9-5s

<u>Add 2 to both sides:</u>

<u />2s-2+2=-9-5s+2

2s=-5s-7

<u>Add 5x from both sides:</u>

<u />2s+5s=-5s-7+5s

7s=-7

<u>Divide both sides by 7:</u>

<u />\frac{7s}{7}=\frac{-7}{7}

s=-1

1. Try It #1
padilas [110]

Answer:

The slope of the line representing the linear function f(x) is determined as $-\frac{1}{2}$. The function f(x) is decreasing because the slope is less than zero, i.e., m<0.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function f(x) is given with two points, (2,3) and (0,4) lying on the line representing f(x).

It is asked to determine the slope of the line and state if the function is increasing or decreasing. of the value of the slope obtained.

Step 1 of 1

Determine the slope of the line.

The points as given in the question are (2,3) and (0,4). Now, the formula for the slope is given as

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

So, substitute $4 \& 3$ for $y_{2}$ and $y_{1}$ respectively, and $0 \& 2$ for $x_{2}$ and $x_{1}$ respectively in the above formula. Then simplify to get the slope as follows,$m=\frac{4-3}{0-2}$\\ $m=\frac{1}{-2}$\\ $m=-\frac{1}{2}$

The slope of the line is obtained as $-\frac{1}{2}$. Now, as $-\frac{1}{2} < 0$, so the function f(x) is decreasing.

Kendra used these steps to solve the equation 2x + 5 = 3 + 2(x + 1). Which choice describes the meaning of her result, 5 = 5?
alekssr [168]
The answer is A.
 If a redundant conclusion is reached in basic algebra this states that the variable holds all possible real values. 
If you algebraically solve Kendra's you do achieve the true statement 5 = 5 (leaving out D). And if you test any value of x for the equation it does hold true (getting rid of B). 
Hopefully this makes sense.

Each tray has 5 colors, one color is purple, what fraction of the colors in 20 trays is purple
IrinaK [193]
Each tray is 1/5 purple. So one tray is 1/5 purple, and if you add another tray, you're adding the same amount of each color, so it's now 2/10 purple, which simplifies to 1/5. No matter how many you add, the fraction will be 1/5.

Find an equation of the line that is perpendicular to 9x + 5y = - 1. Write your answer in the form y = mx + b.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

move x to the right making the equation 5y=-9x-1 then divide both sides by 5 to get y= -9/5x-1/5. the slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite reciprocal of the slope from the og eq. so the slope of the new line is 5/9x and the y-intercept stays the same so the equation should be y=5/9x-1/5
