Answer:

750 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there be "x" number of books in the 3rd room

Now,

2nd room has 3 times as 3rd room, so we can write:

Second Room = 3x

Also, there are 1960 MORE books in 1st room than 2nd room, so we can write:

First Room = 3x + 1960

In total there are 7210 books in all three rooms, thus we can write:

First Room + Second Room + Third Room = 7210

Now, replacing the first 2 equations in this, we get:

3x + 1960 + 3x + x = 7210

Solving for x:

3x + 1960 + 3x + x = 7210\\7x=7210-1960\\7x=5250\\x=\frac{5250}{7}\\x=750

"x" is indeed what we are looking for. Thus,

There are 750 books in the third room

Kinda need help anything helps

First you have to find the slope with the equation y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 , then once you have found the slope (slope = -2) you simply plug it into the point slope formula. y-0 = -2(x-5) solving it algebraically you should arrive at Y=-2x+10. (the 5 and 0 were plugged in are two of the X and Y points of the line which is why we plugged them into the X and Y values of the equation)
