If Paul mows the lawn once, he earns 1*25.50. If he mows it twice, he earns 2*25.50, and so on. So, he earns L*25.50. But, he spends 3.50. So the equation is:
So we're looking at two rectangles, one cut out of the other, so all you do is find the area of the big one, base times height equals area, minus the area of the small one, base times height equals area. So the equation you have to solve for is this,
Area=(12.6X14)-(3X8.4)
y = mx + b, where b is the y intercept.
D, or "12" is the answer.
Best of luck.
The slope is three over one and the y intercept is nine
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 3y = 30 (equation 1)
-2x + 3y = 3 (equation 2)
9x = 27 (subtract the two equations to eliminate y)
x = 3 (divide by 9)
7 * 3 + 3y = 30 (Substitute x = 3 into equation 1, it doesn't matter which equation you substitute into)
21 + 3y = 30 (7 * 3 = 21)
3y = 9 (Subtract 21)
y = 3 (divide by 3)
Answer is (3, 3)
