The price of a flower bouquet is $2.75 according to the information on the question above. This problem can be solved using two linear equations with two different variables based on the transaction. The first equation is 3x +5y= 25.75 and the second equation is 8x+2y=29 which can be simplified as y=14.5-4x. You can find the x by substituting the "y" variable on the first with the second equation resulting in "x =2.75" which is the price of the flower bouquet<span>.</span>

F(6,2) G(2,4)<br> Write equation in slope intercept form
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

y = -½x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for slope intercept form is y = mx + b

Where m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept

.............................

Solving for m

...........................

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1)

y2 = 4, y1 = 2

x2 = 2, x1 = 6

m = (4-2)/2-6)

m = 2/(-4)

m = -½

.......................

Solving for b

.........................

Using point F(6,2) as reference

y = 2, x = 6, m = -½

if y = mx + b

Substituting 2 for y and 6 for x in the above equation

2 = -½ * 6 + b

2 = -3 + b

2 + 3 = b

5 = b

b = 5

OR

Using Point G(2,4) as reference

y = 4, x = 2, m = -½

if y = mx + b

Substituting 4 for y and 2 for x in the above equation

4 = -½*2 + b

4 = - 1 + b

4+1 = b

5 = b

b = 5

.............................................

Finally, we have to write the equation in slope form

Using y = mx + b

where m = -½ and b =5 ................ (Calculated)

y = -½x + 5

I’m confused can someone explain?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

It is 150 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this value by dividing the numerator by the denominator, summing this value to the integer part and multiplying the result by 100%, so:

1 1/2 in percent = (1 + 1/2) × 100% =

(1 + 0.5) × 100% = 1.5 × 100% = 150%

Hope this helps! Sorry if I'm wrong.

If she uses the blue book then she will need,

544/9 ≈ 61 pages

If she uses the red book the she will need, 

544/7 ≈ 78 pages

So she will need 17 more pages if she uses the red book.
