x = 1.50 + y
*40x + 40y = 940
40 (1.50 + y) + 40y = 940
60 + 40y +40y = 940
60 + 80y = 940
80y = 940 - 60
80y = 880
y = 880/80
y = 11
*x - y = 1.50
x - 11 = 1.50
x = 1.50 + 11
x = 12.5
x=DAVID
Y=PETER
1. Answer: 19/30 or 0.63
2. Answer: 11/20 or 0.55
3. Answer: 7/4 or 1 3/4 or 1.75
Answer:
To find the value of y from a given value of x, find the position of x on the x-axis, then trace vertically until you meet the line. Once you meet the line, trace horizontally to the y-axis to find the corresponding value of y.

From inspection of the graph,
when x = 1, y = -1
when x = 0, y = 2
when x = 2, y = -4
Therefore,

To find the equation of the line, find the slope:

Then use one of the points and the found slope with the point-slope form of a linear equation: 


So the equation of this line is:
