7/8 = 14/16
14/16 + 9/16 = 23/16
Let x = number of tbsp of pure maple syrup 1.00x = maple syrup content of pure syrup0.45(48) = maple syrup content of 45% solution0.60(x+48) = maple syrup content of mixtureThen, 1.00x + 0.45(48) = 0.60(x+48)
x + 21.6 = 0.60x + 28.80.40x = 7.2x = 18 tbsp
Slope = (22-7/(2+3) = 15/5 = 3
y = mx + b
b = y -mx
b = 7 - (3)(-3)
b = 7 + 9
b = 16
equation in slope intercept form
y = 3x + 10
