Answer:
The slope intercept form is y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept. In the equation y = 2x - 1, the y-intercept is -1. So, if you have an equation like y = 4x, there is no "b" term. Therefore, the y-intercept is zero, and the line passes through
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
cross multiply - 2(2x-4) = 3(x=1)
4x - 8 = 3x + 3
4x - 3x = 3 + 8
x = 11
75% of 56 is .75 * 56
.75 * 56 = 42
Because you are decreasing, you subtract 42 from 56.
56 - 42 = 14
A 75% decrease of 56 books would leave 14 books.
