Start by seeing where the lines go. They cross (intersect) at (1, -1). We can use this to check later.
Now for slope: green is -4/2 = -2
pink is 4/2 = 2
Now we can create the equations
Let's make green = g(x) and pink = p(x)
if we use y = mx + b, then the green has a y-intercept (b) of +1
So g(x) = -2x + 1
pink has a y-intercept of -3, so p(x) = 2x - 3
Now let's plug n play: put our solutions x into each equation and confirm that it makes the y = -1
g(x) = -2x + 1 = -2(1) + 1 = -2+1 = -1
p(x) = 2x - 3 = 2(1) - 3 = 2-3 = -1
✔ YES THEY ARE CONFIRMED
Answer:
18x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)= 3x + 10x
g(x)=5x - 3
f(x)+g(x) = 3x + 10x + 5x - 3
Combine like terms
= 18x -3
X = pencils, y = pens
8x + 6y = 8.50
4x + 4y = 5.....multiply by -2
----------------
8x + 6y = 8.50
-8x - 8y = -10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
-2y = - 1.50
y = -1.50 / -2
y = 0.75 <=== pens cost 0.75
4x + 4y = 5
4x + 4(0.75) = 5
4x + 3 = 5
4x = 5 - 3
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 0.50 <== pencils cost 0.50
Step 1: Put the numbers in numerical order from smallest to largest. Step 2: If there is an odd number of numbers, locate the middle number so that there is an equal number of values to the left and to the right.
Answer:
The width of pen A is 7 feet,
The Length of Pen A is 11 feet,
The width of Pen B is 6 feet,
The Length of Pen B is 12 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The width of pen A is 7 feet,
The Length of Pen A is 7 + 4 = 11 feet,
The width of Pen B is 7+4-5 = 6 feet,
The Length of Pen B is 2*(7+4-5) = 12 feet
