Answer: $21.45
Step-by-step explanation:
FACTS:
1 yard costs $5.72.
She bought 3.75 yards
Total cost= cost per yard x number of yards
Total: t
t= 5.72x3.75
t= $21.45
She spent $21.45 for 3.75 yards of material
Answer:
i think 8
Step-by-step explanation:
If you graph y=7x-9 and y=3x-1 the two lines will intersect at one point. That is how you graphically "solve" the system of equations.
Both of these lines are of the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
So for y=7x-9, the slope is 7 and the y-intercept is -9
For y=3x-1, the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is -1
....
The solution for this system occurs when both coordinates are equal to each other so we can say:
7x-9=3x-1 subtract 3x from both sides
4x-9=-1 add 9 to both sides
4x=8 divide both sides by 4
x=2, making y=3x-1 become:
y=3(2)-1=6-1=5, so the solution to the system of equations is:
(2,5)
