Hey there!

y = -1/4x + 10

Looking for the amount of hours of sleep for an 8 year old, so x is 8.

Solve for y:

y = -1/4(8) + 10

y = -2 + 10

y = 8

The predicted number of average hours of sleep for an 8 year old is 3. 8 hours.

Hope this helps!

Sallys statement is always true
for example:
-6 + 2 = -4
but if I turn it around
2 - 6 = -4
same answer

-6 -6 = -12
swap around -6 - 6 = 12
same answer

again -3 + 6 = 3
and 6 - 3 = 3

8-2x=-8x+14<br><br><br> answer choices <br> x=-1<br> x=-3/5<br> x=3/5<br> x=1
navik [9.2K]
Hello there!

8 - 2x = -8x + 14

Let's start by subtracting 8 to both sides

8 - 2x - 8 = -8x + 14 - 8

-2x = -8x + 6

Let's add 8x to both sides

-2x + 8x = -8x + 6 +8x

6x = 6

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6 = 6/6

x = 1

The correct answer is option D

I hope this helps!
