Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3y + 1 - 2y = -3 -3y
4y = -4
y = -1
The linear equation represents y = mx + b describes several real world situations such as
- Relation between printer and ink cartridges,
- Relationship between number of songs and how much is left on the card.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Linear equations y = mx + b.
m is your rate of change.
b is your constant. This is the initial value of y. The value of y when x is 0.
Finally, y is the thing that depends on x.
Oh right, examples:
- I buy a printer for $100 and the ink cartridges cost $25 each. The relationship between ink cartridges and total cost.
total cost = 25(cartridges I buy) + 100 or y = 25x + 100
-
I get a $100 iTunes gift card for my birthday and then start buying $1 songs. The relationship between the number of songs I buy and how much is left on the card
amount left on card = -$1(songs bought) + 100 or y = -x +100
See attached scatter plot
this does not show a linear pattern
Assume the smaller one is x, then the other ones will be x+2 and x+4
x(x+2) + 2 = 5(x+4)
x^2 + 2x - 5x - 18 = 0
-> x^2 - 3x - 18 = 0
-> (x-6)(x+3) = 0
-> x = 6 or -3, since x must be positive, then x = 6
So the numbers are: 6, 8, 10
