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!

8(-2x+1)=30-(-4+3x)<br><br> solve for x
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

8 (-2x + 1) = 30 - (-4 + 3x)   Distribute

-16x + 8 = 30 + 4 - 3x  Combine like terms

-16x + 8 = 34 - 3x   Rearrange terms

-13x = 26 Divide by -13 on both sides

x = -2

What is the value of x, when -9(x-5)=x+22 1/2​
Kipish [7]

Answer:

x = 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

 -9(x - 5) = x + 22 1/2

Distribute the nine and then add 9x to both sides

 -9x + 45 = x +22 1/2

+ 9x        + 9x

Then try to get x alone

       45 = 10x + 22 1/2

     -22 1/2       -22 1/2

    22.5 = 10x

   \frac{22.5}{10} = \frac{10x}{10}

   2.25 = x

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Originally, you will <em>pay</em> $95.75 for the dog.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Maintenance cost of dog after 55 months =  $5,468.50

Maintenance cost of dog  after 82 months = $8,053.75

To Find:

How much did you pay for the dog originally = ?

Solution:

It is stated that the maintenance cost is same from month to month

Now 82 - 55 =  27 months

For 27 we have paid

$8,053.75 - $5,468.50

$2585.25

But one month the amount paid will be

\frac{2585.25}{27}

<h3>=>95.75</h3>
