To find slope, use the equation:
slope = \frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}<span>
<span>where x_{2} and y_{2} are the x and y values of one coordinate point, and x_{1} and y_{1} are the x and y values of another coordinate point . Since we are given two coordinate points, that means we can find the slope using the slope equation.

</span></span>

Let's choose (6, 0) as your (x_{2},&#10;y_{2}) point and (0, -2) as your (x_{1}, y_{1}) point, but you can switch those if you want! That makes x_{2} = 6, y_{2} = 0 and x_{1} = 0, y_{1} = -2. Plug these values into the slope equation and simplify:

\frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\&#10; = \frac{ 0 - (-2) }{6-0} \\&#10; = \frac{2}{6} \\&#10;=  \frac{1}{3}

Answer: Slope = \frac{1}{3}

This is a case of exponential growth.  The appropriate equation, with the given data inserted, is     P(t) = 500 ( 1+0.15)^50

or                                   = 500 (1.15)^50

Evaluate this on your calculator.

70 = 7x - 7(2x - 5)<br> How do I solve this ?
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

70=7x-7(2x-5)

70=7x-14x+35

70-35=-7x

35=-7x

5=-x

-5=x

Alonso went to the market with $55 to buy eggs and sugar. He knows he needs a package of 12 eggs that costs $2.75. After getting
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

1) The inequality is $55 ≥ $11.50 × S + $2.75

2) Alonso can afford 4 boxes of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The total amount with Alonso = $55

The amount of eggs Alonso needs = 12 eggs

The costs of the pack of 12 eggs = $2.75

The number of packs of eggs Alonso buys = 1

The cost of each box of sugar =  $11.50

Let the number of boxes of sugar Alonso buys = S

Given that the total amount of money with Alonso is $55, then the inequality will be such that $55 will be equal to or larger than the expression for items bought

Therefore, the inequality is given as follows;

$55 ≥ $11.50 × S + $2.75

2) To find out how many boxes of sugar Alonso can afford, we have;

$55 ≥ $11.50 × S + $2.75

$55 - $2.75≥ $11.50 × S

$52.25 ≥ $11.50 × S

∴ S ≤ $52.25/$11.50 = 4.54

S ≤ 4.54 boxes of sugar

As the sugar comes in whole boxes, Alonso can therefore afford only 4 whole boxes of sugar.

Alonso can afford to buy 4 boxes of sugar.
