Answer:
It intersects the x-axis at x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find slope <em>m</em>
m = (5 - 1)/(5 - 9)
m = 4/-4
m = -1
y = -x + b
Step 2: Find <em>b</em>
5 = -5 + b
b = 10
Step 3: Rewrite equation
y = -x + 10
Step 4: Find <em>x</em> when <em>y</em> = 0
0 = -x + 10
-10 = -x
x = 10
So the graph crosses the x-axis at 10.
Answer:

The file includes the input of your equation, comment if the equation you input is a mistake.
42.5p=c
You get you get the number 42.5 since you know 10 people paid 425, you would divide 425 by 10 to know how much every person paid.
M is representing the amount of money each person paid
(M)10=425
M=425/10
M=42.50 <- since it’s about money
Each person paid $42.50
The cost for 15 people is $637.50.
42.5p=c
42.5(15)=637.5
