Answer: Here I simplified it and I think its right.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The point (56, 1.75) is on the line.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given two points, we can get the slope (m) as follows:
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the points. Replacing with (8, 0.25) and (16, 0.5):
m = (0.5 - 0.25)/(16 - 8) = 0.03125
The point-slope form of a line is:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Replacing with data:
y - 0.25 = 0.03125(x - 8)
To know if point (56, 1.75) is on the line, we have to replace x = 56 in the obtained equation and check y-value, as follows:
y - 0.25 = 0.03125(56 - 8)
y - 0.25 = 1.5
y = 1.5 + 0.25 = 1.75
Then, the point is on the line. This means that there are 56 ounces in 1.75 quarts.
Divide all the terms by 2:
2xy + 12z + 3xy - z
The slope is 3/2 because it rises 3 and goes over 2
16
8 x 2 = 16
9/9 = 1
16 x 1 = 16
