The equation that represents the scenario is 2x + 500 = 2400

The cost of one month rent is $950

She paid two months rent and a $500 security deposit when she signed for a lease. In total she paid $2400.

let

the cost of a month rent = x

Therefore,

<h3>Total cost Equation</h3>

2x + 500 = 2400

The cost of the one month rent can be calculated as follows:

2x + 500 = 2400
2x = 2400 - 500
2x = 1900
x = 1900 / 2
x = $950

Therefore, the equation that represent the scenario and cost of one month rent are as follows;

2x + 500 = 2400
cost of one month rent = $950

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (8,-1) and (2,-5) in standard form, given that the point-slope for

Bess [88]

The equation of the line that passes through the points (8,-1) and (2,-5) is 2x - 3y = 19.

The given coordinate are (8, -1) and (2, -5).

<h3>What is the slope of an equation?</h3>

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line.

The slope of the equation is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ .

The standard form of an equation is Ax + By = C.

The given the point-slope form is $y+1=\frac{2}{3} (x-8)$ .

Multiply each term by 3 of the equation.

$(y+1) \times3=\frac{2}{3} (x-8) \times3$

⇒3y + 3 = 2x - 16

Subtract 2x from both sides of a equation.

That is, -2x + 3y + 3 = - 16

Subtract 3 from both sides of a equation.

That is, -2x + 3y = - 19

Multiply each term by - 1 from both sides of an equation.

That is, 2x - 3y = 19

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the points (8,-1) and (2,-5) is 2x - 3y = 19.

Let the equation of a line be described by Equation A:

umka2103 [35]

10y - 5x = 40 Add 5x to both sides
10y = 5x + 40 Divide both sides by 10
y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x + 4

The y-intercept is 4 and the slope of the line is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

You can find these by comparing your equation to the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Can you combine like terms without formally showing the distributive property? Explain.

blsea [12.9K]

Yes you can! Say you have 5(2 + x) + 3x. The answer would be 10+8x because when you use the distributive property you will end up getting 5*2 5*x and once you multiply, it's obvious 5 times 2 is 10 and 5 times x will equal 5x. Then you add 5x and 3x and get 8x. So, the simplified expression here is 10+8x. When you have this as an answer it's proving your answer right. You can without using the distributive property. We can have 10+5x+3x and it will be your simplified expression. It's the same thing with equations too.
