Y=Mx +b
B is 0 because that’s where the graph intercepts the y axis.
M is found by picking any two points and finding the rise and run because m is equal rise/run
Points of choice: (-2,4) and (2,-4)
=2−1/2−1 = -8/4
m is equal -2
Y= -2X
Look at the picture below to differentiate between positive and negative slopes.
Answers:
u = 18
v = 20
========================================================
Work Shown:
The leg YZ is congruent to the left FH
This means YZ = FH and that leads to u+v-18 = 10u-8v
The hypotenuse ZX is congruent to the hypotenuse HG
This means ZX = HG and we get the equation 14v-14u+32 = v+u+22
----------------------
The system of equations we have so far is
u+v-18 = 10u-8v
14v-14u+32 = v+u+22
Let's get the equations into standard form
Start with the first equation
u+v-18 = 10u-8v
u+v = 10u-8v+18
u+v-10u+8v = 18
-9u+9v = 18
-9(u-v) = 18
u-v = 18/(-9)
u-v = -2
Note how we can solve for the variable u to get
u = v-2
which we'll use later
----------------------
Let's get the other equation into standard form as well
14v-14u+32 = v+u+22
14v-14u-v-u = 22-32
-15u+13v = -10
Now plug in u = v-2 and solve for v
-15u+13v = -10
-15(v-2) + 13v = -10
-15v+30+13v = -10
-2v+30 = -10
-2v = -10-30
-2v = -40
v = -40/(-2)
v = 20
Which means,
u = v-2
u = 20-2
u = 18
Answer:
Each poodle = $300
Each Cat = $150
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of poodles be P and number of cats be C
"if he buys 3 pooples and 2 cats he will spend 1200" mathematically:
3P + 2C = 1200-------eq 1
"2 poodles and 3 cats he will spend 1050" mathematically:
2P + 3C = 1050 ------eq 2
So now we have a system of 2 equations with 2 unknowns, we'll solve by elimination
eq 1 x 3 : 3 (3P + 2C) = 3 (1200)
9P + 6C = 3600 ------ eq 3
eq 2 x 2: 2(2P + 3C) = 2(1050)
4P + 6C = 2100---------eq 4
By elimination : eq 3 - eq 4
(9P + 6C) - (4P + 6C) = 3600 - 2100
9P - 4P = 1500
5P = 1500
P = 300 (answer)
Substituting back into eq 1
3(300) + 2C = 1200
900 + 2C = 1200
2C = 1200 - 900
2C = 300
C = 150(answer)
The answer would be 248 inches
Answer:
6 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = the first number(3/5 of the second number namely b)
Let b = the number that is 5/3 of a
a=3/5 b
Assuming they are both positive integers, obviously you will have to add 4 to a.
4+a = b
4 + 3/5 b = b
2/5 b = 4
b = 10
a=6
ONLY ASSUMING IF THEY ARE BOTH POSITIVE INTEGERS
