Step-by-step explanation:
Let's pick two points on the line:
and
Let's calculate the slope of this line using these points:

With this value of the slope, we can write the general slope-intercept form of the equation as

To solve for the y-intercept b, let's use either P1 or P2. I'm going to use P2:

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the equation is

This is a common factor problem.
Pencils come in a pack of 12
Erasers come in a pack of 10
First, break the number into their prime factors(the idea is that we will break the number down into its smallest multiples, which are prime numbers):
10 = 2 * 5
12 = 2 * 2 *3
So now we take the unique multiples of each number, and when we multiply them together, we will get the smallest number that both 10 and 12 can be divided into(this is what the problem is asking for)
We have (2*2*3) that comes from 12, and the only unique number that comes from the 10 is (5)
So now, we multiply:
2*2*3*5=60
However, this isn't exactly out answer. Now we have to divide our answer by the number of each this in the pack to know how many packs to buy.
60/12=5 packs of pencils
60/10= 6 packs of erasers
I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions!!
Put into slope intercept form, y=mx+b where m=slope
p=-2q+6
slope is -2
subsitute values for q and get values for p
q=0, p=6
(q,p)
(0,6)
(1,4)
p=q+4
slope is 1
subsitutte
q=0,p=4
(q,p)
(0,4)
(1,5)
below are the graphs
Answer:
x= -2
Step-by-step explanation: If you feel skeptical about my answer, then you should plug -2 back into the equation to check if it's correct. And it's correct for me when I did it.
