Marty is not correct

Answer:

  • Marty is incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let's check his work by simplifying the given expression.</u>

  • 2(x - 2) - 2(3)
  • => 2x - 4 - 6
  • => 2x - 10

When I compare Marty's result and this result, they are un-equal. Hence, Marty is incorrect.

<u>Marty's mistake</u>

  • Marty must've got the problem wrong because of not understanding the distributive property.
  • He probably forgot to multiply -2 by 2. Instead, he only subtracted 2 when he should've subtracted 4 from 2x.

Rosalie earns extra money by working as a babysitter over the weekend. She charges $10 to drive to the home and an additional $8
agasfer [191]

Answer: The input values are B-number of hours (x).

The output values are C-charge for babysitting(y).

The value of $10 represents the B-y intercept.

The value of $8 represents the C-slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Charges to drive to the home= $10

Additional charges per hour=$8

Let x be the hour she worked (independent variable) and y be the total charge for baby sitting (dependent variable)

Thus, the input values are number of hours (x) and the output values are charge for babysitting(y)

According to the situation the equation would be

y=8x+10

which is equivalent to the slope intercept form y=mx+c, where

m=8, slope of line

At x=0, y=10

Thus, $10 represents the y intercept

425 is decreased to 319
tatuchka [14]
425 is decreased to 319.

The above statement means that a number should be deducted from 425 to get the difference of 319.

Let x be the unknown number.

425 - x = 319
425 - 319 = x
106 = x

106 is the unknown number.

It can be phrased like this: 425 decreased by 106 is 319.
