How do you find the slope and put it in slope intercept form

1 answer:

6 0

To find the slope take your points, they should be (x1,y1) (x2,y2), proceed to subtract y2-y1 over x2-x1. after you calculate that simplify and put it in y=mx+B (the slope goes in the m position and x is usually left open)

Counted a total of 40 white cars and yellow cars there were 9 times as many as white cars as yellow cars. how many white cars di

Law Incorporation [45]

Let W = number of white cars, and Y = number of yellow cars.
There were 9 times as many white cars as yellow cars. This means that the number of white cars was 9 times more than the number of yellow cars. This can be translated by the expression:
9Y = W
The person counted 40 cars in total:
W + Y = 40

So we get the system:
$\left \{ {{W+Y=40} \atop {9Y=W}} \right.$

In the first equation, we multiply by 9:
9W + 9Y = 360
In the second equation:
9Y= W
W-9Y = 0

Then we add the first with the second equation:
9W + 9Y + W - 9Y = 360
10 W = 360
W = 36

So He counted 36 white cars.

Hope this Helps! :)

Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 180° in a triangle, so using the ratios and the 180° setup an equation. Solve for x.

5x + 9x + 10x = 180

24x = 180

24x/24 = 180/24

x = 7.5

To find the largest angle measure, use 10x since 10 is bigger than 5 and 9.

10x

10(7.5)

75°

Kate and Melisa both went to the same store to buy eggs and bread for their families. Kate bought 3 cartons of eggs and 5 loaves

VMariaS [17]

Write an equation system based on the problem
For an instance, e stands for the price of a carton of eggs, and b stands for the price of a loaf of bread

"Kate bought 3 cartons of eggs and 5 loaves of bread for $30.07" could be written as 3e + 5b = 30.07 (first equation)
"Melissa bought 2 cartons of eggs and 2 loaves of bread for $14.74" could be written as 2e + 2b = 14.74 (second equation)

Solve the equation system using elimination method
Eliminate b to find e. To eliminate b, we should equalize the coefficient of b.
3e + 5b = 30.07 (multiplied by 2)
2e + 2b = 14.74 (multiplied by 5)
-------------------------------------------
6e + 10b = 60.14
10e + 10b = 73.70
------------------------- - (substract)
-4e = -13.56
e = -13.56/-4
e = 3.39

The price for a carton of eggs is $3.39
