Answer:
The constant m=-4, and b=33
Step-by-step explanation:
F(x)= MX+b
If f(6)=9 then x=6, m= -4
9= -4(6) + b
9= -24 + b
b= 9 + 24
b= 33
Therefore the constant m, which is the slope is -4 and b which is the intercept is 33

Answer:
B. $1.60 per notebook
Step-by-step explanation:
Because:
4 notebooks ÷ $2.50 (4 notebooks cost) = $1.60 per notebook
Answer: The solution is (3, -2)
This means that x = 3 and y = -2 pair up together.
=====================================================
Explanation:
The solution is where the two lines cross. Note if we started at the origin (0,0) and moved to the right 3 units, and then down 2 units, we would arrive at the location (3, -2).
-----------------
As a way to check, we can plug x = 3 into each equation. We should get y = -2 as a result for each equation
y = (-5/3)x + 3
y = (-5/3)*3 + 3
y = -5+3
y = -2
The first equation is confirmed. Let's check the second equation
y = (1/3)x - 3
y = (1/3)*3 - 3
y = 1 - 3
y = -2
Both equations have the y value equal -2 when x = 3. Therefore, the overall solution is confirmed.
