A = 4.25p
this equation says that the amount that you spent (A) is equal to the how many pounds of cherries you buy (p) and you know from the question that each pound costs 4.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Im not sure if its supposed y = -2x + 1 or y = 2x + 1 but I'll solve the problem for both.
First for y = -2x + 1
Since the line has to be parallel to y = -2x + 1
the slopes would be the same.
so, so far the equation would be
y = -2x + b
now we substitute (5,2) into the equation
2 = -2(5) + b
2 = -10 + b (Add 10 to both sides of the equation)
+10 +10
12 = b
Now that we solved for b
The equation would be
y = -2x + 12
^^ This equation is parallel to y = -2x + 1
Now to solve for an equation parallel to y = 2x + 1
Both equations would have the same slope
So far we would have
y = 2x + b
Now we solve for be by substituting the point (5,2)
2 = 2(5) + b
2 = 10 + b (subtract 10 from both sides)
-10 -10
-8 = b
After solving for b
The equation is
y = 2x - 8
This equation is parallel to y = 2x + 1
