Answer:

a = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation for a straight line is y = mx+c, where m is the gradient/ slope, so m = -5. The first thing we need to do is find c, which we do by plugging in the x and y values that we already know: y = 7 and x = -2

7 = -5*(-2) + c

7 = 10 + c

c = 7-10 = -3

Now, we have the general equation of y = -5x -3 and we can use this to find a.

We'll treat a as x and y will be equal to 2:

2 = -5a -3

5 = -5a (Divide both sides by 5)

-a = 1 (now by -1)

a = -1

Probability is defined as the number of desired outcomes over all possible outcomes. Lets say each second is one possible outcome. This means there is 30 different desired outcomes out of 60 possible outcomes. The probability therefore is 30/60, simplified to 1/2.

What did this student do incorrectly to find the percent change from 14 dollars to 10 dollars?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

I don't know what he did wrong, but to work out the percentage change, you do 10 ÷ 14, which gives you 0.71.

1 - 0.71 = 0.29

0.29 × 100 = 29%  You multiply by 100 to get your percentage change value.

29% is the percentage change.

I hope this helps you!! ^-^

The product of 4, and a number increased by 8, is -48
german

Answer:

4n + 8 = -48

n = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using key words from the problem, you can set up an equation with the proper operations to solve for the variable.  Product = multiplication, so the 'product of 4 and a number' = 4n.  Increased = addition, so increased by 8 = 4n + 8.  The word 'is' means equal to, so:

4n + 8  = -48

In order to solve for 'n', you use inverse (opposite) operations and whatever you do to one side of the equation, you do to the other:

Subtract 8:  4n + 8 - 8 = -48 - 8 or 4n = -56

Divide 4:  4n/4 = -56/4

Solve for 'n':  n = -14
