Answer:
Write the new equation in slope-intercept form. Replace the old slope with the new slope. Replace the y-intercept's value with a variable (b).
Answer:
\[y < = 300\]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of out-of-state students at the college
Let y = number of in-state students at the college
As per the given problem, the constraints are as follows:
\[x < = 100\] --------- (1)
\[y = 3 * x\] --------- (2)
From the given equations (2), \[ x = y/3 \]
Substituting in (1):
\[y/3 < = 100\]
Or, \[y < = 300\] which is the constraint representing the incoming students.
The car goes 23.2 miles every gallon, so with 15 gallons (15 * 23.2 = 348) it can go 348 miles. With the extra .25 that the car has, it can go 0.25 * 23.2 = 5.8 miles. 348 miles plus the 5.8 miles gets you 353.8 miles on 15.25 gallons.
