Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify.</em>

-3(x + 2) = 16 - x

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. [Distributive Property] Distribute -3:                                                                -3x - 6 = 16 - x
  2. [Addition Property of Equality] Add <em>x</em> on both sides:                                     -2x - 6 = 16
  3. [Addition Property of Equality] Add 6 on both sides:                                    -2x = 22
  4. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -2 on both sides:                                x = -11

Answer:

y= 1/2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

2y - x = 8

First find the slope

2y = x+8

Divide by 2

2y/2 = x/2 +8/2

y = 1/2 x +4

The slope is 1/2  ( y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept)

When lines are parallel they have the same slope)

Using y = mx+b

y =1/2x+b

Substituting the point (4,-1) into the equation

-1 =1/2(4)+b

-1 = 2+b

-3 =b

The equation of the line is

y= 1/2x-3

25 is what percent less than 35
mars1129 [50]
Difference between 25 and 35 = 35 -25
                                                 = 10
Then
percentage by which 25 is less than 35 =(10/35) * 100
                                                                 = (2/7) * 100
                                                                 = 200/7
                                                                 = 28.57 percent
So 25 is 28.57% less than 35.This is the only clear way of solving these kind of problems. I hope you have understood the method used to solve this problem. Hopefully you can do such type of problems without needing any help.

A square is shown below. Which expression can be used to find the area, in square units, of the shaded triangle in the square?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Area = \frac{1}{2} (6)(6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Triangle = \frac{1}{2} (Base)(Height)

Where Base = 6 , Height = 6

Area = \frac{1}{2} (6)(6)

Area = 3 * 6

<u><em>Area = 18 units^2</em></u>

The sum of the first 6 terms of a geometric series is 15,624 and the common ratio is 5.
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of n terms of a geometric series with first term a1 and common ratio r is given by ...

  Sn = a1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)

for r=5 and n=6, this becomes ...

  15624 = a1·(5^6 -1)/(5 -1) = a1·(15624/4)

Then we have ...

  1 = a1/4 . . . . . divide by 15624

  4 = a1 . . . . . . multiply by 4

The first term of the series is 4.
