Answer:

E started with 26 books, sold 13 books, bought 17 more books, and ended with 30 books

Step-by-step explanation:

E has _ books: x

E Sells 1/2 of that _ books: x/2

E buys 17 books and now had 30: (x/2) + 17 = 30

30 - 17 = 13

13 x 2 = 26

x/2 = 26

13 + 17 = 30       <-- checking work

My guess is that x = 13

What is an<br> equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,8) and (4,1)?
GuDViN [60]

Answer: y= -1x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,8) ( 4,1)

8-1= 7

-3-4 = -7

7/-7 = -1  so the slope is -1   so we will use the formula y=mx+b to find the y-intercept

8= -1(-3) + b

8= 3 + b

-3   -3

b= 5  so the y intercept is 5 now we will write the equation like this y= -1x + 5
