Kara has 21 collectible buttons to sell. She sells the small buttons for $3 and the large buttons for $4, and earns a total of $

68. If the small buttons are represented by x and the large buttons are represented by y which of the following systems of equations can be used to calculate the number of large and small buttons sold.Answersx+y=21,3x+4y=68x+y=68, 3x+4y=21x+y=21, 4x+3y=68x+y=68, 4x+3y=21

We know that there are 21 buttons total. x is the number of small buttons and y is the number of large buttons. 

Therefore, our first equation should be x+y = 21.

We know the small buttons sell for 3 dollars, meaning 3x represents how much is made from the small buttons. The larger buttons sell for 4 dollars, meaning 4y is how much is made from the large buttons. 

We also know that the total of the buttons sold is 68 dollars. Therefore 3x + 4y = 68 is our second equation.

From this information, the answer is the first set.

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point 4,-1and has slope of -5
Basile [38]

Answer:

y=-5+19

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

To start, you know what m is; it's just the slope, which you said was -5. So you can right away fill in the equation for a line somewhat to read:

y=-5x+b.

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) point means:

(4,-1). When x of the line is 4, y of the line must be -1.

Because you said the line passes through this point, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: . b is what we want, the -5 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the the point (4,-1).

So, why not plug in for x the number 4 and for y the number -1? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the point you gave!.

(4,-1). y=mx+b or -1=-5 × 4+b, or solving for b: b=-1-(-5)(4). b=19.
