Answer:
y= -7x-8
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form is y = mx + b.
First, find the slope. Use rise/run which gives you -7. <= negative bc its a negative slope.
Next, find the y intercept for b. It is -8.
Now, combine the numbers. y = -7x-8.
Let's use our largest amount (quarter) to see how many can fit evenly into 1.74.
- 1.74/0.25 = 6.96
- The most quarters that can fit into $1.74 is 6.
---Multiply $0.25 by 6 = $1.50
---Subtract $1.50 from $1.74 = $0.24
---We need to use the rest of the coins to fill up $0.24.
Now let's use our second largest amount (dime) to see how many can fit evenly into 0.24.
- 0.24/0.10 = 2.4
- The most dimes that can fit into $0.24 is 2.
---Multiply $0.10 by 2 = $0.20
---Subtract $0.20 from $0.24 = $0.04
No nickels can fit into $0.04, because they are worth $0.05.
We can use our least amount (pennies) to fill in the $0.04 remaining.
Your answer is 6 quarters, 2 dimes, and 4 pennies.
Answer:
Equation: y = 2.5x
Answer: 43.75 drawers
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: 10 - 7.5 = 2.5 and when you subtract 2.5 until the Number of Drawers (x) is 0, then you get 0 for Total Volume (y), so y =2.5x+0 or y = 2.5x
Answer: Substitute 17.5 into x.
y = 2.5(17.5)
y = 43.75 drawers
Find the equations of the lines...
First find the slope...(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=m
m=(6-1)/(8-5)=5/3 and it passes through (5,1) so
y=mx+b becomes:
y=5x/3+b and using (5,1)
1=5(5)/3+b
1=25/3+b
3/3-25/3=b
b=-22/3 so
y1=(5x-22)/3
.... now y2...
m=(8-3)/(-1--4)=5/3 (note it has the same slope as y1...
y=5x/3+b and using the point (-1,8)
8=5(-1)/3+b
8=-5/3+b
24/3+5/3=b
b=29/3, now note that the y-intercept is different...
y2=(5x+29)/3
Since these lines have the same slope but different y-intercepts, they are parallel to each other. (and will never intersect.)
Answer:
The probability is 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the probability that the first person will sit in a yellow roller coaster car
The number of cars to select from is 6 + 9 = 15 cars
The number of yellow cars is 6
So the probability that the first person selects a yellow roller coaster car to seat is 6/15 = 2/5
