okay. the point has an x and y value. place them into the equation.
1=m(1)+b
m=slope, and theequation tells you that slope is 7.
1=7(1)+b
now you need to figure out what b is.
1=7(1)+b
^
1= 7 +b
-7 -7
---------------
-6=B
b is 6. now place it into the equation, replacing the x and y values back.
y=7x-6.
write 7 and 6 in the boxes (the negative for the six has already been provided)
The cost for each pound of trail mix and each pound of jelly is given below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t = cost/pound of trail mix
Let j = cost/pound of jelly beans
5t + 6j = 35
3t + 2j = 15 = > 2j = 15 - 3t
5t + 3(15 - 3t) = 35
5t + 45 - 9t = 35
- 4t + 45 = 35
- 4t = - 10
4t = 10
t = 2.5
3(2.5) + 2j = 15
7.5 + 2j = 15
2j = 7.5
j = 3.75
Well it seems if you round you would get 1.81 try it
6x - 2 = x + 13
Subtract x
5x - 2 = 13
Add 2
5x = 15, x = 3
Solution: the number is 3
