A law firm is going to designate associates and partners to a big new case. The daily rate charged to the client for each associate is $400 and the daily rate for each partner is $800. The law firm designated twice as many partners as associates to the case and was able to charge the client $8000 per day for these lawyers' services. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of associates assigned to the case, x, and the number partners assigned to the case, y.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

the speed is   miles per hour > is false

step-by-step explanation:

we know that  

a relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or

in a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

the graph shown in the figure represent a direct variation

the slope of the line represent the speed

for the point

substitute the values of x and y

the linear equation is equal to

statements

case a) it takes hours to go miles

the statement is true

because

substitute

for

find the value of y in the linear equation

> is correct

case b) the speed is   miles per hour

the statement is false

because the speed is

case c) the unit rate for the trip is

the statement is true

because the speed is equal to the slope of the linear equation

case d) it took minutes to go the first miles

the statement is true

because

substitute

for

find the value of y in the linear equation

> is correct
