Answer:
(d) y = -5/2x -3
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the offered choices are in slope-intercept form, so it makes sense to put the given equation in that form. Solving for y, we get ...
5x +2y = -4
2y = -5x -4 . . . . . subtract 5x
y = -5/2x -2 . . . . . divide by 2
The system of equations will have <em>no solution</em> if the equations are "inconsistent." That will be the case when the slope is the same, but the y-intercepts are different. That means you're looking for an answer of the form ...
y = -5/2x +c . . . . . . where c is not -2
This matches the last choice:
y = -5/2x -3
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
let the unknown be y (x is used as times(multiplication) )
(y-17)x-6=-138
add /-6 to both sides
y-17x-6/-6=-138/-6
y-17=23
make y independent/add 17 to both sides
y-17+17=23+17
y=40
or in an easier way
-138/-6 =23
23+17=40
simply reversing the question to get the answer
Answer:
5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the values from high school athletes (the first row of numbers) to the values of college student athletes (the second row). Since we are only looking for male percentages, ignore the women's basketball
Take any of the college values, and divide it by the high school values. After this, multiply by 100 to get a percentage
Example, 56500 ÷ 983600 = 0.05
0.05 * 100 = 5%
You will get 5% for all males sports in this table
