P+(2p-250)=2858  where p equals East High School's population
simplify (combine like terms)
3p-250=2858
add 250 to each side of the equation
3p=3108
divide each side by 3
p=1036
1036 students attend East High School.

What is the equation of this graphed line?
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

y = -1/3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use rise over run to find the slope: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Plug in the points:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-7 + 3) / (6 + 6)

-4 / 12

= -1/3

Plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

-3 = -1/3(-6) + b

-3 = 2 + b

-5 = b

Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b

y = -1/3x - 5 is the equation of the line

A can holds 2 liters of paint.<br><br>then how many can we fill with 11 liters of paint​
pychu [463]

Answer:

5 and a half

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you can fit 2 liters in each can, to find how many you would need, divide 11 by 2, this would give you 5 and a half, 5.5.

It could be that they want you to round up to six or round down to five, so do consider that.
