<span>To make identical first aid bags and maximize the amount, you first have to take the item that you have the least amount of and make that your base amount of bags with one item per bag. Doing that for the nurse gives 36 bags with 1 packet of ointment per bag and 0 left over. Next, you know that you have 72 antiseptic wipes which is double the amount of ointment, so you would put 2 antiseptic wipes in each bag and have 0 left over. Finally, since 55 bandages is not double 35, you would put one bandage in each bag and have 19 bandages left over. In summary, there would be 36 bags, with each having 2 antiseptic wipes, 1 adhesive bandage, and one packet of ointment. There would be 19 adhesive bandages leftover.</span>
X=3
y=5
You have to cancel out either the x values or the y values (I chose y). You multiply both equations by particular numbers so either the x values or y values can be equal to each other, as well as positive or negative to each other. I multiplied -7y by 4 and 4y by 7, and got -28y and 28y. I then canceled those out. The numbers you multiply by also affects the rest of the equations, so I ended up with 48x=4 and -35x=35. After that, you combine like terms, which results in 13x=39. You divide 13 by both sides and you end up with x=3. To find y, all you have to do is plug in the x value to one of the equations, then solve for y. I resulted in y=5.
Hope this helped ^_^
Answer:
The point slope formula is
(y−y1)=m(x−x1)
Where m = the slope calculated as y2−y1x2−x1
(x1,y1)(x2,y2)
(-4 , 1) (-2 , 3)
Solve for the slope
m = 3−1−2−(−3) = 21 = m = 2
(y−3)=2(x−(−2)) Plug in known values.
y−3=2(x+2) Simplify signs
y−3=2x+4 Use Distributive property
y=−2x+4+3 isolate the y variable
answer (y = −5x+7 ) Simplify
