y=(x-5)^2 - 2
If he had $254 to spend, and at the end (after spending) he was left with $29, then that means he spent $225 on video games. That's because we're taking away what he has now from what he had originally to spend, which leaves us with how much he spent on games in total.
So, if we know that he spent $225 on 9 video games, we can work out how much each game costs by dividing the amount he spent ($225) by the number of games (9) to give us the final answer:
$225 ÷ 9 = $25
He spent $25 on each game. Hope that helped! :)
32 in. because 2.5 feet is only 30 in
Answer:
y = -x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
As we move from the point (3, -4) to the point (5, -6), x increases by 2 and y decreases by 2. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -2/2, or -1.
Starting with the general slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line, we get y = mx + b => y = -1x + b.
Subbing -4 for y and 3 for x, we get
-4 = -1(3) + b, which yields b = -1
Thus, the desired equation is
y = -x - 1
