Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x.

Given statement :Three added to 4 times a number is equal to 5 less than 6 times the number.

Then according to the above statement, we have the following equation:-

$3+4x=6x-5$

Subtract 4x from both sides , we get

$3=2x-5$

Add 5 on both the sides , we get

$8=2x$

Divide both sides by 2 , we get

$4=x$

Hence, the number is 4.

The y-intercept appears to be at y=-1. The line appears to also go through grid point (3, 1), which is 2 units up and 3 units over. The slope is 2/3.

In slope-intercept form the equation of the line is
y = (2/3)x - 1

How do I solve this finding the first four of the sequence?

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

300,350,400,450

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for any n term is:

tn=a1+(n-1)d

t1= 300+(1-1)d=300

t2= 300+(2-1)50= 350

t3= 300+(3-1)50= 400

t4= 300+(4-1)50 = 450

and so on...

Why do equivalent ratios form a straight line when<br> graphed? Explain.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The y-values of equivalent ratios increase at the same rate as their x-values. The vertical distance between points is constant, and the horizontal distance between points is constant. This forms a straight line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equivalent proportions (which are, as a result, equal parts) are two proportions that express a similar connection between numbers. We can make comparable proportions by duplicating or separating both the numerator and denominator of a given proportion by a similar number.

Two ratios that have the same value are called equivalent ratios. To find an equivalent ratio, multiply or divide both quantities by the same number. It is the same process as finding equivalent fractions.

Answer:

The answer is 5300 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will be exactly lie below if the price is 5$:

$5=-0.05x^2-0.3x + 8\\0=-0.05x^2-0.3x+3$
