The correct answer is A) y = -3x - 1
In order to find this, start by using the two points on the line to find the slope.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-4 - 2)/(1 - -1)
m = -6/2
m = -3
Since A is the only one with a -3 slope, this is the correct answer.
Answer:
The jelly beans cost $2.25 / pound
The trail mix costs $1.25 / pound
Step-by-step explanation:
Let +a+ = cost/pound of jelly beans
Let +b+ = cost/pound of trail mix
(1) 6a + 2b =16
(2) 3a + 5b =13
Multiply both sides by 2
and subtract (1) from (2)
(2) 6a -2b = -16
(1) -6a -2b = -16
8b=10
b=1.25
and
(1) 6a+2b=16
(1) +3a+b=8
(1) 3a+1.25=8
(1) +3a=6.75
(1) a=2.25
38 just count the sides, thats perimeter
