The advantage of the graphing calculator is that you just have to find two independent equations, introduce them in the calculator and it will find the intersection point ot the two graphs.
The equations that you have to introduce are:
1) y = 2.25x + 24
2) y = 2.75x + 23
The algebraic solution, which will give you the same coordinates of the intersection point of the graphs is
2.25x + 24 = 2.75x + 23
2.75x - 2.25x = 24 - 23
0.5x = 1 => x 1 /0.5 = 2.
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of novels
y = number of dictionaries
x = 8y
88x + 208y = 13680
now, using the identity of the first equation in the second equation gives us
88(8y) + 208y = 13680
704y + 208y = 13680
912y = 13680
y = 13680/912 = 15
x = 8y = 8×15 = 120
so, there were 120 novels and 15 dictionaries sold.
Hi there!
Sometimes, like you said, you might don't get the exact answer when you justified your answer. In this case, you need to take the nearest number. So if you got 11 then 12 is the nearest number, just go for it.
Or go back and start over and see if you didn't miss anything.
I hope this helps!
