It would be: - 2 - (-10) = 5x - 12

= -2 + 10 = 5x - 12

= 8 + 12 = 5x

= x = 20 / 5

= x = 4

Find the slope of the line on the graph
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

<em>m </em>=<em> </em>1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use two points on the line given.

(0 , 2) & (-4 , 0)

You are solving for the slope. The slope formula:

<em>m</em> (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Let:

(x₁ , y₁) = (-4 , 0)

(x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 2)

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

<em>m</em> = (2 - 0)/(0 - (-4))

Simplify:

<em>m</em> = (2)/( 0 - (-4))

<em>m</em> = (2)/(0 + 4)

<em>m</em> = 2/4

Simplify the slope. Divide the common factor 2 from both the numerator and denominator:

<em>m</em> = (2/4)/(2/2) = 1/2

1/2 is your slope.

Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of granola
murzikaleks [220]

Not really sure what you are looking for, but this is how to solve equations such as these.

Let:

x = number of pounds of granola

y = numer of pounds of walnuts

The equation he can use to compute the total cost would be:

$2.00x + $6.00y = $12.00

We know that he bought 3 pounds of granola, so we plug in that for the x value:

$2.00(3) + $6.00y = $12.00

$6.00 + $6.00y = $12.00

To isolate the unknown value which is y, we first need to subtract $6.00 from both sides of the equation:

$6.00 + $6.00y - $6.00 = $12.00 - $6.00

$6.00y = $6.00

Then we divide both sides by $6.00:

$6.00y/$6.00 = $6.00/$6.00

y = 1

So the number of bags of walnuts he can buy is 1 bag.
