So since this is a linear equation, which is y=mx+b, you use what it tells you in the word problem. so mx is the rate, since in this equation 200 per ton of sugar that's your mx, so its 200x. then for your b value, which in this case is the cost of truck rental, so its 5,400.
your equation is C=200s+5400
the variables are the same so you can use Y and X, but I used the variables used in the word problem.
Y=200x+5400
Attached image is the answer
Answer:
3:1
You can easily figure out that 60 is a factor of 180 bc 6 is a factor of 18.
So you can simplify it to 18:6
Then divide both sides by 6 and you will get 3:1
Hope this helps ;)
The slope of this line is -3/4
In order to find this, we look for two points on the line and then use the slope formula. Two points that are on the line are (0, 2) and (4, -1). Plug these into the following formula.
m (slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-1 - 2)/(4 - 0)
m = -3/4
Answer:
7 classmates
Step-by-step explanation:
The last person in the line is in position 35.
The Maria's leading classmate is in the position 35-23+1 = 13.
So, Maria's classmates are from position 13 to 19 (not including herself), and their number is 19-12 = 7 persons.
ANSWER. Maria has 7 classmates (not including herself).
Hope this helps.
