Answer:
6x
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
x + 2x + 3x
Step 2: Combine like terms
3x + 3x
6x
Graph it on the Ti-84 and use the trace function to find the intersection.
The answer is
(-3,3)
The classes could each have proportions of 5 boys to 6 girls, but they don’t necessarily have to be exactly 5 to 6. The number could 5 to 6 for one class, but it could also be 10 to 12 for another class, since 10 to 12 is a scale factor of 5 to 6.
First you have to find the slope with the equation y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 , then once you have found the slope (slope = -2) you simply plug it into the point slope formula. y-0 = -2(x-5) solving it algebraically you should arrive at Y=-2x+10. (the 5 and 0 were plugged in are two of the X and Y points of the line which is why we plugged them into the X and Y values of the equation)
