Answer:

-9 - 8x

Step-by-step explanation:

Andy multiplied incorrectly it should have been -4*2x, -4*-3

Sylvie forgot to multiply both sides she did -4*2x but forgot to do -4*-3

The correct answer should be...

-3-4(2x-3)

-3 - 8x + 12

-9 - 8x

What are the slope and the y-intercept of the linear function that is represented by the equation 8x-2y = 57

krok68 [10]

Answer:

slope(m)=4 and

y-intercept(c)=-5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

here,8x-2y=5

reducing it into slop intercept form we get,

2y=8x-5

or,y=8/2x+(-5/2)

or,y=4x+(-5/2)

comparing it with y=mx+c we get,

slope(m)=4 and

y-intercept (c)=-5/2

Sum of the interior angles of any triangle equal to 180 degrees thus :

60 + 70 + 8x + 2 = 180

8x + 132 = 180

Subtract both sides 132

8x + 132 - 132 = 180 - 132

8x = 48

Divide both sides by 8

8x ÷ 8 = 48 ÷ 8

You invested $ 7000 between two accounts paying 3 % and 5 % annual? interest, respectively. If the total interest earned for the

natita [175]

Answer:

In the first account was invested $\$3,000$ at 3%

In the second account was invested $\$4,000$ at 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

$I=P(rt)$

where

I is the Interest Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

First account

$t=1 years\\ P=\$x\\ r=0.03$

substitute in the formula above

$I=x(0.03*1)$

$I=0.03x$

Second account

$t=1 years\\ P=\$(7,000-x)\\ r=0.05$

substitute in the formula above

$I=(7,000-x)(0.05*1)$

$I=350-0.05x$

Remember that

The interest is equal to $\$290$

Adds the interest of both accounts

$0.03x+350-0.05x=\$290$

$0.05x-0.03x=350-290$

$0.02x=60$

$x=\$3,000$

therefore

In the first account was invested $\$3,000$ at 3%

In the second account was invested $\$7,000-\$3,000=\$4,000$ at 5%
