eq^2: 7x=84 divide 84 by 7 which is 12.
therefore x is equal to 12. Then
1) take that 12 you got in equation 2 and substitute in equation 1 which is:
7x-12y=180
7(12)-12y=180
84 -12y=180
-12y=180-84
-12y=96 ............divide both sides with -12
-y=8 (×-1) both sides
y= -8
therefore 7(12)-12(-8)=180
<span>Yes, so our unit rate is 1:6</span>
a + m = 30
a = m - 8
(m - 8) + m = 30
2m - 8 = 30
2m = 30 + 8
2m = 38
m = 38/2
m = 19
a = m - 8
a = 19 - 8
a = 11
so Amy has $11 and Maria has $ 19
Answer:
$131.88

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
slope: -(9/8)
y-intercept: 7
equation: y = -(9/8)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the slope.
<em>m</em> (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Let:
(x₁ , y₁) = (8 , -2)
(x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 7)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
<em>m </em>= (7 - (-2))/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = (7 + 2)/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = 9/-8
Your slope is -(9/8)
Solve for the y-intercept. Plug in your slope into the slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
Let:
(x , y) = (0 , 7) & m = -(9/8)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
7 = -(9/8)(0) + b
Simplify:
7 = (-9/8 * 0) + b
7 = (0) + b
b = 7
Your y-intercept is 7.
