No, they are not equivalent.
5(2x - y) = 10x - 5y and it is not equal to 15x - 5y.
(using distribution property)
We can use x to represent the total vacation budget.
x times .19 = 285
(a percentage is really just a decimal)
x = 285/.19
x = 1500
Final Answer: the total vacation budget is $1500
Step 1. 100-15=85
Step 2. $350 *.85=$297.50
Step 3. $297.50 * .06= $17.85
Step 4. $297.50+17.85=$315.35
Answer: $315.35
Y= 3/4x - 2 (-2,10)= (x1,y1)
The slope is -4/3 of the perpendicular line:
Then:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-10=(-4/3)(x+2)
y=-(4/3)x -8/3 +10
y= -(4/3)x +22/3 (That's the answer)
