Answer:
C) 7
===========================================
Work Shown:
Use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Plug in the given slope we want m = -5/3 and also the coordinates of the points. Then isolate r
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
-5/3 = (2-r)/(r-4)
-5(r-4) = 3(2-r) .... cross multiplying
-5r+20 = 6-3r
-5r+20+5r = 6-3r+5r .... adding 5 to both sides
20 = 6+2r
20-6 = 6+2r-6 ....subtracting 6 from both sides
14 = 2r
2r = 14
2r/2 = 14/2 .... dividing both sides by 2
r = 7
The slope of the line through (4,7) and (7,2) should be -5/3, let's check that
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (2-7)/(7-4)
m = -5/3
The answer is confirmed
c = cost of food/med for cats
d = cost of food/med for dog
y = total cost/spent
What you know:
y = 6c + d [has 6 cats and 1 dog]
c = 2/3d - 5 [cost for cat is 5 less than 2/3 cost for dog]
y = $195
y = 6c + d
Substitute/plug in what you know, plug in (2/3d - 5) for c and 195 for y
195 = 6(2/3d - 5) + d Distribute/multiply 6 into (2/3d - 5)
195 = 4d - 30 + d Combine like terms
195 = 5d - 30 Add 30 on both sides of the equation
225 = 5d Divide 5 on both sides
$45 = d
So, first off it would help if you could define the terms irrational number and integer. Well, an irrational number is basically any real number that can't be expressed as a ratio of integers. They also cannot be represented by terminating or continuing decimals. And an integer is pretty much any number that cannot be written as a fraction or decimal, such as -2, 13, 257. It is not 2 and 1/2, or 4.75. Those would not be integers. Do you think you can figure out the difference?

Answer:
Hello!
After reading the question you have provided I have come up with the correct numerical expression:
4x5-1
Step-by-step explanation:
To come up with this solution you need to keep in mind some of the terminoloy being used.
The word "subtract" comes from the action of subtraction
The word "product" comes from the action of multiplication
Thus, using those terminologies correctly, you can then deduce that when the question says "the product of 4 and 5" means "multiplying 4 and 5 together".
So you get the first part being 4x5
Then, you add in the last part of "subract 1" from the "product of 4 and 5":
4x5-1
<em>Remember to keep in mind the rule of "PEMDAS"</em>
You always need to keep the multiplication portion of the equation in front of any subtraction, or addition in any given equation.
