I would say that you cannot answer the question if you dont know either the X-value or Y-value. You need to know at least one of them to figure out the other.
Answer:
y= 11/2 x+1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope Intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope of the line, b = y intercept and (x,y) are coordinate points on the line.
To put this in slope-intercept form, you need to solve the equation for y
-11x + 2y = 1
<u>+11x +11x</u> add 11x to both sides of the equation
<u>+2y</u> = <u>1 + 11x</u>
2 2 Divide both sides by 2 (so y is by itself)
y = 11/2x + 1/2
We have an exponential with a fractional base and a positive exponent, and a positive sign at front. Each time we multiply a fraction between zero and one by itself it gets smaller. So as x increases we'll go to zero. As x decreases it goes to positive infinity, as negative powers are the reciprocals of positive power.
The left end approaches positive infinity and the right end approaches zero.
The answer would be 16. She gave Erin 6 and kept two. That would be 8 oranges between the two of them and David got half, making the total 16 oranges.
