Answer:
4 lbs left after 5 days
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to step up an equation!
You know that Soomin has a total of 20 pounds and that she's using it, so you are going to use subtraction.
She uses 3 1/5 pounds per day so you write:
20 - 3 1/5x
and you know that she wants to know how much she has left after 5 days so you replace the x with 5:
20 - (3 1/5) * 5
Multiply first:
20 - 16
After Subtracting you get the answer:
4 lbs left
20 • 12 is 240
1/2 • 12 • 4 is 24
so 264
Multiply by 3/5 (three fifths)
F(x) = x/4
so
f(-8) = -8/4 = -2
answer
f(-8) = -2
First question:
1. Set equations equal to each other so 5x-9=2x+6
2. Put x's on one side so that 3x=15
3. Divide by 3 so that x=15
4. Substitute 15 in for x so that y=2(15)+6
5. Solve for y so that y=36
6. Thus the equations intersect at (15,36)
Second question:
1. Since for lines y=mx+b, and m=slope=3 you only need to write an equation with slope 3
2. y=3x+b, b can be any number
