x = points in first game
y = points in second game
6x=y to make them equal multiply the first games points by 6
x+y=35 the points in both games
x +6x = 35 substitute for y (y=6x)
7x=35 combine like terms
x=5
y=6x
y=6(5)
y=30 points
Y = mx + b....m is the slope and b is the y intercept
slope(m) = 5...(4,0)...x = 4 and y = 0
now we sub our info into y = mx + b...we r looking for b, the y intercept
0 = 5(4) + b
0 = 20 + b
-20 = b
so ur equation is y = 20x - 20...but we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C
y = 20x - 20....subtract 20x from both sides
-20x + y = -20...multiply by -1 to make x positive
20x - y = 20 <== standard form
1.9
9.5% = 0.095
0.095* 20 = 1.9
Answer:
the slope is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, we use the formula
m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)
= (4--1)/ (-1-4)
= (4+1)/(-5)
= 5/-5
= -1
