Answer:
The equation of the line AB is y - x -4 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The points are A (10,14) and B(2,6)
Now, slope of the line AB : 
or,
=
So, slope of the equation AB = 1
Now, by SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM:
The equation of line is given as : y - y0 = m (x-x0)
So,the equation of line AB is y - 6 = 1(x-2)
or, y - 6 -x + 2 = 0
or, y - x -4 = 0
Hence, the equation of the line AB is y - x -4 = 0
Answer:
11 dimes, 17 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
d + n = 28, put one variable by itself on a side, d = 28 - n
.10d + .05n = 1.95
Sub the first equation into the second
.10(28 - n) + .05n = 1.95
2.8 - .10n + .05n = 1.95
2.8 - .05n = 1.95
-.05n = -0.85
n = 17 nickels
d + 17 = 28
d = 11 11 dimes
Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
17. See below
18. 750
Step-by-step explanation:
17. Since the lollipops are being sold at the same price, 50 cents, for each one sold, they make a constant amount of money. For each increase in lollipops sold, there is a constant increase in money made, and thus the situation is a linear function.
18. To solve this equation, let's say y is the money made at the convention in dollars and x is the number of lollipops sold. If the principal gave them 125 dollars before they sold any lollipops (0 lollipops sold), then 125 is the y-intercept of the function, and in the equation y=mx+b, b=125. If each lollipop costs 50 cents (half of a dollar), then for each lollipop, x, sold, .5 dollars are made and are added to the profit, y. Thus, .5 dollars is the slope. The equation then becomes:

Now, if they need 500 dollars, y is thus equal to 500 dollars. Solving the equation:






Thus, 750 lollipops must be sold.
