Answer:
y = -5/2x - 13
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to find the slope of the original equation
Subtract 5x from both sides
5x + 2y = 1
- 5x - 5x
2y = -5x + 1
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2 = (-5x + 1)/2
y = -5/2x + 1/2
The slope of this equation is -5/2, so -5/2 has to be in our new parallel equation
y = -5/2x + b
Plug in the given x and y
-3 = -5/2(-2) + b
-3 = 10 + b
Subtract 10 from both sides
-3 = 10 + b
- 10 - 10
b = -13
This makes our equation: y = -5/2x - 13
Answer:
$315
Step-by-step explanation:
1.75 x 100 = $175
3.50 x 40 =$140
175 + 140 = $315
4/3 can be written as 4:3 or 4/3 and is a real number
Answer:
164
Step-by-step explanation:
Checkpoint 2= -187
Checkpoint 1= -23
The negatives mean how much lower they are from the surface.
To find "how much lower," we need to subtract -23 from -187.
-187-(-23) is the same as -187+23 (2 negatives=1 positive)
-187+23= -164.
However, it's not negative in the answer because by asking how much lower, we don't need to have a negative. "How much lower" is a distance, and a distance is always positive.
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
Jason = 22
Taylor = x
- 2x + 6 = 22
- 2x = 22 -6
- 2x = 16
- x = 16/2
- x= 8
Taylor is 8
