Answer:
The correct answer is !40 cows and 28 Horses
Step-by-step explanation:
h+5h=168
6h=168
h=168/6
h=28 horses.
5*28=140 cows.
Proof:
28=140=168
168=168
9514 1404 393
Answer:
A. The equation represents a linear function because the equation is in the form y = mx + b
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear function does not have to be in the form y = mx + b, but if a function is in that form, it is a linear function.
choice A is appropriate
__
A function may have two variables, x and y, and not be a linear function. For example, y = x² is not a linear function. The fact that it has two variables is not what makes it linear.
To find the slope given two points, you need to subtract the two y values over the two x values
(-5,-3) (9,-6)
-5 will be x1, and -3 will be y1. 9 will be x2, and -6 will be y2. You then need to put the numbers in the correct place in the equation.
y2-y1 -6-(-3) -9
-------- = -------- = ----
x2-x1 9-(-5) 14
Now that we have the slope (-9/14) you can use one of the coordinates to find the value of b.
Let's use (9,-6).
-6=-9/14(9)+b
-6=-81/14+b
+81/14
b=-3/14
Your final equation is y=-9/15x-3/14
