Answer is A.
You start by adding the 7 to the opposite side. Giving you 19. You divide both sides by -2 which gives you x on one side and -9.5 on the other.
-2x-7=12
-2x=12(+7)
-2x=19
x=19/-2
x=-9.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as
y = mx + c
Where
m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)
The equation of the given line is
x + 2y = 4
2y = - x + 4
y = -x/2 + 4/2
y = - x/2 + 2
Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = - 1/2
If two lines are perpendicular, it means that the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.
Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 2, 1) is 2
To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = 2, x = - 2 and y = 1 into y = mx + c. It becomes
1 = 2 × - 2 + c = - 4 + c
c = 1 + 4 = 5
The equation becomes
y = 2x + 5
y = 12x + 10
Assuming that your question is multiple choice, the variables might be different.
The reason that it's represented as 12x + 10 is because there is a flat fee of $10 when you sign up. From then on afterward, every month you pay $12.
In this equation, the variable 'y' represents the total cost, while 'x' represents the number of months this service was in use.
