Answer:
We conclude that the equation of the line is:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of the line equation
where
Given the data table
x -3 -5 -7 -9 -11
y -16 -26 -36 -46 -56
From the table taking two points
Determining the slope between (-3, -16) and (-5, -26)
Thus, the slope of the line is: m = 5
substituting m = 5 and (-3, -16) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation to determine the y-intercept b
-16 = 5(-3) + b
-16 = -15 + b
b = -16+15
b = 1
Thus, the y-intercept b = 1
now substituting m = 5 and b = 1 in the slope-intercept form of the line equation
Therefore, we conclude that the equation of the line is:
This is an odd problem. The length and width look like they should be interchanged. Anyway I'll solve it and we'll talk about the results.
(x +7) (x + 3) = 396
x^2 + 7x + 3x + 21 = 396
x^2 + 10x + 21 = 396 Subtract 21 from both sides.
x^2 + 10x = 396 - 21
x^2 + 10x = 375
x^2 + 10x - 375 = 0 This probably factors.
(x + 25)(x - 15)
x + 25 = 0
x = - 25 which makes no sense. Negatives do not describe room dimensions.
x - 15= 0
x = 15. this is fine.
x+3 = 15 + 3 = 18
x + 7 = 15 + 7= 22
Check
=====
Area = L * W = 18 * 22 = 496. It does check.
22 should be the length
18 should be the width.
Answer:
The number is 6.25
Explanation:
Assume that the number we are looking for is x
First, we will set up the equations as follows:
1- Subtract 1.05 from the number (assume the result is y):
x - 1.05 = y
2- Multiply the difference by 0.8 (assume the product is z):
0.8(y) = z
3- add 2.84 to the product (assume the result is w):
z + 2.84 = w
4- divide the sum by 0.01, the quotient is 700:
w / 0.01 = 700
Now, we will work backwards as follows:
4) w / 0.01 = 700
w = 0.01 * 700
w = 7
3) z + 2.84 = w
z + 2.84 = 7
z = 7 - 2.84
z = 4.16
2) 0.8y = z
0.8y = 4.16
y = 4.16 / 0.8
y = 5.2
1) x - 1.05 = y
x - 1.05 = 5.2
x = 5.2 + 1.05
x = 6.25
Hope this helps :)
Solving an equation means finding the value of x which will make the equation true.
We need to undo whatever is done to x to get it by itself.
Conclusion:
Since we end up with an equation which is not TRUE, there is NO solution for this equation. If we graph both the equations, they will end up as a parallel lines which will never meet.
