It says less than so you want to subtract.
an number with be represented by the variable n:
n-9
it isn't 9 minus n because that would be nine less a number(9-n)
so your answer is:
n-9

Let us say that this number is n

Then we could say:

<em><u>n - 9</u></em>

I need to find Y=Mx+b. I found M but i forgot how to find B. Help

enot [183]

Y = mx + b. This linear graph passes through A(0,50) and B(10,51)

m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)
m= (51-50)/10-0)
m=(1)(10)

y = (1/x) + b. To find b, you plugin the coordinates of either A or B,
say A(0,50):

50 = (1/10).(0) + b
50 = 0+b and b= 51

Hence the equation is y =0.1x + 50

$\left \{ {{3x+3y=18} \atop {2x+y=4}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{x+y=6} \atop {2x+y=4}} \right. \\\\=>\left \{ {{x=4-6} \atop {x+y=6}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{x=-2} \atop {x+y=6}} \right. \\\\\left \{ {{x=-2} \atop {y=6-(-2)=8}} \right.$

Write and graph an equation:

Answer:

y=29*x

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is a linear function problem. We need at least two points to solve it. After finding two points we will compute the slope and then us the point-slope formula.

If you put 11 gallons of gasoline in your car it will allow you to drive 319 miles, this means that when x= 11 then, y=319. So the first point is (11,319). For the second point you now that if you have no gallons of gasoline then you won't be able to drive so, the second point is (0,0).

Now that we have to points we are able to compute the slope. The formula for the slope is:

$m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ .
