Answer:
x = -
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 3) - 5 =
(x - 1)
Multiply through by 8 to clear the fractions
6(x - 3) - 40 = x - 1 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side
6x - 18 - 40 = x - 1
6x - 58 = x - 1 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x - 58 = - 1 ( add 58 to both sides )
5x = - 57 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = -
Answer:
y = 18.1x ; and y = 18x
Explanation:
The rate of change in Relationship B can be found by using the formula for slope:
Using the first two points, we have
We know that Relationship A has a lesser rate than this. The choices given for Relationship A are written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (in this case b = 0).
The slope of the first equation is 18.1; this is less than 18.25.
The slope of the second equation is 18.6; this is greater than 18.25.
The slope of the third equation is 18.3; this is greater than 18.25.
The slope of the fourth equation is 18; this is less than 18.25.
