Hello there!
The x-intercept and y-intercept of the line shown on the graph are...
x-intercept: (-7,0)
y-intercept: (0,2)
Answer: below
Step-by-step explanation: You simply need to divide the total amount of sugar (9 lbs) by the amount that you put into each bag (2/3 lb). This expression looks kind of ugly in this form, so let's instead multiply 9 by the reciprocal of 2/3, which in this case is 3/2. The reciprocal of any number is just 1 divided by the number.
There will be eight marbles on the 9th line
The four answer choices are equal and pass through the point (-3,1), which you verify replacing the variables:
y - 1 = (x + 3)
1 - 1 = -3 + 3
0 = 0.
The other factor that you have to considerate is the slope.
The slope of the equation y - 1 = x + 3 is 1 (the coefficient of the x).
Given that the slopes of two parallel line are the same (equal), you need to determine the slope of the parallel line.
Once you know the slope of the parallel line, you can choose the right option.
The equation shown, y - 1 = x + 3 is the right fit if and only if the parallel line has slope 1.
