Answer:

Simplifying

2x + -15 + x + -5 = 148

Reorder the terms:

-15 + -5 + 2x + x = 148

Combine like terms: -15 + -5 = -20

-20 + 2x + x = 148

Combine like terms: 2x + x = 3x

-20 + 3x = 148

Solving

-20 + 3x = 148

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '20' to each side of the equation.

-20 + 20 + 3x = 148 + 20

Combine like terms: -20 + 20 = 0

0 + 3x = 148 + 20

3x = 148 + 20

Combine like terms: 148 + 20 = 168

3x = 168

Divide each side by '3'.

x = 56

Simplifying

x = 56

Write an equation for the line perpendicular to y=1/3x-2 and passing through the point (3,3)
maria [59]

line given slope = x coefficient = 1/3

Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

line slope (m) = -3

line equation formula = y = mx + b

y = -3x + b

from the point given

x = 3

y= 3

3 = -9 + b

b = 12

y = -3x + 12

A television game show begins with 20 contestants. Each week, the players vote 2 contestants off the show. What is the rate of c
nadya68 [22]

Using a linear function, it is found that the rate of change in this problem situation is of -2 contestants per week.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Considering the situation described, the number of participants after n weeks is given by:

N(n) = 20 - 2n.

The slope is of -2, hence the rate of change in this problem situation is of -2 contestants per week.
