Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, subtract 2 from both sides
2 (-2) - x = (5/8) - 2
-x = 5/8 - 2
Make sure they have the same denominator. Remember that what you multiply to the denominator, you multiply the numerator:
-x = 5/8 - 16/8
-x = - 11/8
Isolate the x. Divide -1 from both sides
(-x)/-1 = (-11/8)/-1
x = 11/8
11/8 is your answer for x

The answer is B. 1200, because it is the most reasonable. The other answers are unreasonable because they are too close to the other points.
Answer:
Lady purchased 12 trinkets costing $0.30 each and 8 trinkets costing $0.65 each.
Step-by-step explanation:
A lady buys total number of trinkets = 20
Cost of each trinket is either $0.30 or $0.65.
Let the number of trinkets is x she purchased for $0.30 and y for $0.65
Then x + y = 20 --------(1)
Since she spends total amount = $8.80
Then the equation will be
0.30x + 0.65y = 8.80 ---------(2)
We replace x = (20 - y) from equation (1) to equation (2)
0.30(20 - y) + 0.65y = 8.80
6 - 0.30y + 0.65y = 8.80
0.35y + 6 = 8.80
0.35y = 8.80 - 6
0.35y = 2.80
y = 
y = 8
Now we put y = 8 in equation (1)
x + 8 = 20
x = 20 - 8
x = 12
Therefore, lady purchased 12 trinkets costing $0.30 each and 8 trinkets costing $0.65 each.
The first one would be approximately -0.8. It has a negative slope and the data points are fairly close together.
The second one is almost a straight line so it would be very close to 1. I would say 0.97
The closer the data is to a straight line the closer the r value is to 1 or negative 1.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
-6634
Step-by-step explanation:
(5m)² - (2n-3m)³ if m=-3 and n=5
= (5 * (-3))^2 - (2 * 5 - 3 * (-3))^3
= (-15)^2 - (10 - (-9))^3
= 225 - (19)^3
= 225 - 6859
= -6634
