Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions need to have common denominators. So, we would make the common denominator (x + 3)(x - 3), or, x^2 - 9
Multiply the numerator by the same number or variable as the denominator and then combine.
Once their is x and a number left you would solve for x.
Answer:
y-intercept = (0, - 3)
x-intercept = (-6, 0)
slope = - 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The y intercept is the value of y when the x = 0. By looking at the graph, we can tell that when x = 0, y = - 3. Likewise for the x-intercept.
We can use the slope formula to determine the slope.
m = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1
You can choose any 2 points on the line and substitute in the formula. I chose the y and x intercepts for easier calculations.
m = - 3 - 0/ 0 - (- 6)
m = - 3/ 6
m = - 1/2
X=cost per hamburgurs
y=cost per hot dog
200x+150y=1450
200x+250y=1750
we can multiply first equation by -1 and add to 2nd
-200x-150y=-1450
<u>200x+250y=1750 +</u>
0x+100y=300
100y=300
divide both sides by 100
y=3
sub back
200x+150y=1450
200x+150(3)=1450
200x+450=1450
minus 450 both sides
200x=1000
divide both sides by 200
x=5
the cost of a hamburgur is $5
the cost of a hot dog is $3
It gives you an irrational number, a decimal. It's not a perfect square like
or
.
