Answer:
(4x+3)^2 = 18
16x+9=18
16x=9
<u>x=9/16</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume Jerry sells x bags of dried turkey, and 2x bags of dried beef. He profits ($2)x on dried turkey, and ($1.5)(2x) on the dried beef. Therefore, his total profit is 2x + 3x = 5x. Since this is equivalent to $500, we can solve
5x = 500
x = 100
Therefore, Jerry must sell 100 bags of dried turkey and 200 bags of dried beef.
Answer:
y=4x-5.
Step-by-step explanation:
slop-interception form of the required line is y=kx+b, where k - slop, b - intercept;
1) to find value of k:
if the required line is parallel to the given line, then slop of the given line = slop of the required line, it means k=4 and the required line is y=4x+b;
2) to find the value of 'b':
if to substitute the given coordinates into the equation of the given line, then:
15=4*5+b, b= -5.
3) finally, y=4x-5
