Ok. So first, we calculate the slope!
m=(y2-y1)÷(x2-x1)= (5-2)÷(3-1)=3/2.
Now that we have the slope, we can start to write an equation for the line by plugging in the given points. b is the y-intercept.
y=mx+b.
2=(3/2)1+b
b=2-(3/2)=2-1.5=.5 or 1/2
so the y-int is (0,.5 or 1/2) .
Next, we have to find the x-int.
to do that, we just plug in 0 for the y.
0=1.5x+.5
x=-.5/1.5= (1/3)
so the x-intercept is
(1/3 or .33,0).
Answer:
176 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the number of fiction books 'F', and the number of non-fiction books 'N'. Then, we can write the following system of equations:
eq1:

eq2:



Using the 'F' value from the first equation, we have:




The total number of books is:

2 pages per hour.
the fractions can be turned to decimals easily, 4/5 is 0.8 and 2/5 is 0.4 . divide those decimals together and you get 2.

Step-by-step explanation:
1.
Rises 6 inches for every horizontal change of 16 inches
Slope = rise/run
Slope = 6/16
Slope = 3/8
2.
Rises 3 feet for every horizontal change of 12 feet
Slope = rise/run
Slope = 3/12
Slope = 1/4
