First, we determine that the given equation in this item
is a linear equation. Thus, it should be a straight line. With this, we are
left with the third and fourth choice. Then, we substitute the given data
points to the equation and see if the points satisfy the given.
Choice 3:
<span> (1,3) :
(-5)(1) + (2)(3) = 1 TRUE</span>
<span> (3,8) :
(-5)(3) + 2(8) = 1 TRUE</span>
<span> (-3,-7)
: (-5)(-3) + (2)(-7) = 1 TRUE</span>
Choice 4:
<span> (4,-3) :
(-5)(4) + (2)(-3) ≠ 1 FALSE</span>
<span> (-1,2) : (-5)(-1) + (2)(2) ≠ 1 FALSE</span>
<span> (-4,5) : (-5)(-4) + (2)(5) ≠ 1 FALSE</span>
<span>Thus, the answer is the third choice.</span>
Let the original cost of laptop=x
Savings=20% = 20/100
Saved amount = $140
Original cost = saved amount * 1/savings
x = 140* 100/20
x = $7000
Answer:
D. -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The solution to the equation is
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the solution to the equation
(1/4)x - 1/8 = 7/8 + (1/2)x
First, add -(1/2)x + 1/8 to both sides of the equation.
(1/4)x - 1/8 - (1/2)x + 1/8 = 7/8 + (1/2)x - (1/2)x + 1/8
[1/4 - 1/2]x = 7/8 + 1/8
x(1 - 2)/4 = (7 + 1)/8
-(1/4)x = 8/8
-(1/4)x = 1
Multiply both sides by -4
x = -4
No, it's a little more than that.
1.61 kilometers is 5,282.2 feet.
That's about 2.2 feet longer than 1 mile.
