Answer:
y = -1x + 6 or y = -x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's identify what slope-intercept form is.
y = mx + b
m is the slope. b is the y-intercept.
We know the slope is -1, so m = -1. Plug this into our standard equation.
y = -1x + b
To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: (2, 4). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.
4 = -1(2) + b
To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x(2)
4 = -2 + b
Now, add 2 from both sides to isolate b.
6 = b
Plug this into your standard equation.
y = -1x + 6
This is your equation.
Check this by plugging in the point again.
y = -1x + 6
4 = -1(2) + 6
4 = -2 + 6
4 = 4
Your equation is correct.
Hope this helps!
Multiply price per pound by total pounds:
2.50 x 3.5 = 8.75
Total cost = $8.75
M1= 5 , M2=1
Explanation:
12-3m-4-5/m=0
8-3m-5/m=0
(8-3m-5/m=0) * m
8m-3m^2-5=0
8m-3m^2=5
m(8-3m)=5
m1=5
m2=> (8-3m)=5
3m=3
m2= 1
Im really not sure how to answer this stuff
