Mathematics

Answer:

b= -x+ y/17

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Subtract 17x from both sides of the equation in order to isolate b on one side.

y -17x= 17b

2. Divide every term by 17 in order to isolate b from any coefficients.

y/17 -17x/17 = 17b/17

3. Simplify

b= -x+y/17

Write the equation that passes through the following points:<br><br> (5,0) and (−10,−5)
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The answer is:

y =  \frac{1}{3} x -  \frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

❃Incase you forgot what the linear equation formula is ☟

y = mx + b

❃Incase you also forgot, The is what the slope formula is ☟

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1}

➊ First: We are going to be solving for the slope.

m = \frac{  - 5 - 0}{ - 10 - 5} = \frac{ - 5}{  - 15} =  \frac{1}{3}

➋Second: We find the y-intercept.

y = mx + b \\ 0 =  \frac{1}{3} (5) + b \\ 0 =  \frac{5}{3}  + b \\ \frac{  -   \frac{5}{3}  =  -  \frac{5}{3 }   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \: \: \: \: \: }{  -  \frac{5}{3}  = b}

➌Third: Plug in.

y =  \frac{1}{3} x -  \frac{5}{3}

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
5 bags is cheaper because one bag is $3 and 5 bags for ten so to find the unit price the amount (10/ ) the amount of bags (5) so therefore 10/5= $2 which is smaller than the price of an individual bag
