Dont mind me if i am wrong!
Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is found by doing:
(x1 and y1 must be from the same ordered pair and x and y must be from the same ordered pair, however point (x1,y1) and (x,y) can be used interchangeably)
Let us say that (x1,y1) is (3,18)
And (x,y) is (5,30)
<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Dave makes $350
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
In order to find this answer, we must first establish the equation for his earnings.
<u>We use slope intercept form:</u>
y = mx + b,
where m = slope and b = y-intercept.
Since the problem states that his commission percentage is the slope and his base salary is the y-intercept, we can use them in the equation <u>to get the following: </u>
y = 0.1x + 200.
Now knowing that the x is the amount he sells, we can use the $1500 as x to find his total pay for the week:.
y = 0.1(1500) + 200,
y = 150 + 200,
y = 350. </span>
Answer:
- Walnuts - $1.25, chocolate chips - $3.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let walnuts = x, chocolate chips = y
<u>Set a system and solve:</u>
<u>Double the first equation and subtract the second one from it:</u>
- 6x + 10y - 6x - 2y = 40 - 14
- 8y = 26
- y = 26/8
- y = 3.25
<u>Find the value of x:</u>
- 6x + 3.25*2 = 14
- 6x = 14 - 6.5
- 6x = 7.5
- x = 7.5/6
- x = 1.25
