Make a system of equations and solve for each variable.
3m+8v=53
5m+2v=26
m= movie cost
v= game cost
multiply the bottom equation by 4(combination method)
3m+8v=53
20m+8v=104. Subtract
-17m = -51
m= 3
Plug back into one of the equations
5(3)+2v=26
15+2v=26
2v=11
v=5.5
m=$3
v=$5.5
The initial value is 21 and rate of change is 16 pages per week
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that After writing part of his novel, Thomas is now writing 16 pages per week
After 4 weeks, he has written 85 pages.
Given that assume the relationship to be linear
Linear relationships can be expressed either in a graphical format or as a mathematical equation of the form y = mx + c
y = mx + c
where "y" is the number of pages written after 4 weeks
x = 4 weeks and m = 16 pages
Therefore,
85 = 16(4) + c
85 = 64 + c
c = 85 - 64
c = 21
Therefore, initial value is 21 and rate of change is 16 pages per week
