(3,52)(7,108)
slope = (108 - 52) / (7 - 3) = 56/4 = 14
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 14
(3,52)...x = 3 and y = 52
sub and find b, the y int (the original amount of cards)
52 = 3(14) + b
52 = 42 + b
52 - 42 = b
10 = b
so ur equation is y = 14x + 10....with x being the number of years and y being the total cards. <== ur equation is y = 14x + 10
He started with 10 cards....and has been adding 14 cards every year.
so after 10 years...
y = 14(10) + 10
y = 140 + 10
y = 150 <== after 10 years, he will have 150 cards
Answer:
11 and 16
Step-by-step explanation:
A good way to solve these is to work backwards.
X= larger and Y= smaller
if X is 5 more than 2Y than subtract 5 from the total
38 - 5 = 33
divide by 3
33/3 = 11
11 = Y and double that is 22 so add the five back into X and you get 16
First is 0.06 and second 0.2
