Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You could multiply all of equation A by 1/6 and all of equation b by -1/4 to get
A. x-3/2y=-1/3 and B. x+1/4y=/5/4, then subtract the equations from each other to solve
1.
Slope-300.
Y int: 40,000
Y=300x+40000
2.
S: -5
Y: 250
Y=-5x+250
3.
S: 2
Y: 5
Y=2x+5
4.
S: 150
Y: 350
Y=150x+350
The last question is cut off.
Joe worked 8/40 or 1/5 of that time on Monday.
In our equation, the Y value is the dependent variable and the X is the independent variable. The amount of pounds lost depends on the number weeks on a diet. To get the actual pounds Steve was able to lose in 4 weeks, we have:
Y = 1.8x + 1.2
Y = 1.8(4) + 1.2
Y = 8.4 pounds
