Answer:
f(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
the function f(x) crosses the y-axis higher than either of the other functions, therefore it has the largest y-intercept
Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>-20 is the right answer.</h2>
We can use elimination for these set of systems.
First, we need to set up our variables.
Belts=b
Hats=h
Now, the situation is 6 belts and 8 hats for $140. The situation after is 9 belts and 6 hats for $132.
Let’s set up our system of equations.
6b+8h=140
9b+6h=132
We need to eliminate a variable. Since b has coefficients of 6 and 9, we can easily eliminate b by multiplying the top equation by 3 and the bottom by -2.
18b+24h=420
-18b-12h=-264
Now let’s add.
12h=156
Let’s divide to get h by itself.
156/12=13=h
So a hat costs $13. We need to put in 13 for one of the equations so we can find the cost of a belt.
9b+6(13)=132
9b+78=132
We need b by itself.
9b=54
54/9=6
Belts are $6
We can also use the first equation to check our answers.
6(6)+8(13)
36+104
140.
So, the price of a belt is $6 while the price of a hat is $13.
Since p is the midpoint then xp and pay must equal each other
So, 11-6b=6-b
Solve for b
11-6b=6-b
-6 -6
5-6b=-b
+6b +6b
5=5b
b=1
xp=11-6(1)
xp=5
