I 2. Translate the following statement into an equation: Six times the difference between a
number and 8 is equal to 5 less than twice the number.

6(x-8)=5-2x

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

so we have six times the difference between a number and 8

that is 6(x-8).

is equal to 5 less than twice the number ..we have

=5-2x.

therefore, our answer becomes:

6(x-8)=5-2x

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.
