X= sandwiches
y= bottles of water

QUANTITY EQUATION
x+y= 200

COST EQUATION
$3x + $0.75y= $318.75

STEP 1
solve for one variable in quantity equation and substitute in cost equation

x+y= 200
subtract y from both sides
x= 200-y

STEP 2
substitute 200-y in for x

$3x + $0.75y= $318.75
3(200-y) + 0.75y= 318.75
600 - 3y + 0.75y= 318.75
combine like terms
600 - 2.25y= 318.75
-2.25y= -281.25
divide both sides by -2.25
y= 125 number of water bottles

STEP 3
substitute y=125 in either equation

x+y= 200
x + 125= 200
x= 75 sandwiches

ANSWER: There were 75 sandwiches and 125 bottles of water.

Hope this helps! :)

We have trapezoid with congruent legs.

30x + 11y = 2x + 3

28x +11y = 3

Also we have

30x + 11y = 12

We got 2 equations:

30x + 11y = 12

28x +11y = 3 (*-1) -----> -28x -11y = -3

30x + 11y = 12

<u> -28x -11y = -3</u>

2x = 9

x=9/2

30x + 11y = 12 ------> 30*9/2 +11y =12 ------> 135+11y =12, ---> 11y = - 123,

y= - 123/11

Find the slope and write an equation with these to points (0,-2) (3,1)<br><br> plz explain
tatiyna

Hello There!

Slope: 1

Equation: y = x - 2

Let's start by finding the slope. To find the slope of a given equation, subtract the y values over the x values.

y1 - y2 / x1 - x2 ⇒ 3 - 0 / 1 - - 2 ⇒ 3 / 3 ⇒ 1

This means we have a slope value of 1.

Now, to find an equation. We will find the equation in slope intercept form, or y = mx + b. (In this case, m = the slope and b = the y-intercept, and x and y equal your x and y values fro a given point.)

To get the equation, we need to find the value of b, or the y intercept. To do this, we need to plug in the values we know into the equation.

we know m is the slope, and we know the slope is one so we can place that into the equation. We also know the points (0,-2) (3,1). We can place one of them into the equation for the values x and y.

1 = 1(3) + b

Now, simplify.

1 = 1(3) + b

1 = 3 + b

-2 = b

So, our y intercept is -2, we can plug that into the equation, making our final equation y = x - 2. We don't need to put y = 1x for the slope since multiplying something by 1 is doesn't change the number.

I hope this helps! I know my explanation might have been kind of confusing so if you need more help let me know in the comments !
