The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.

Answer:

In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis).

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: To find out, suppose (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two

points on the graph of y = mx + b.

Step 2: Then y1 = mx1 + b and y2 = mx2 + b.

Step 3: Use algebra to simplify

y2 – y1

x2 – x1

Step 4: Or try Rise/Run.

Paper plates cost $8 per package and plastic utensils cost $5 per package. Your supplier delivers 15 packages for a total cost o
Fittoniya [83]
To find the total of what you sold for each package, you'll need to write two equations. Know that x = paper plate packages and y = utensil packages.
First, x + y = 15 shows that there has to be fifteen packages, and 8x + 5y = 90 shows the $ made from selling a certain number of packages.
Next, you can solve by substitution, so change x + y = 15 to y = 15 - x.

To find our x, substitute the y in 8x + 5y = 90 to get
8x + 5(15 - x) = 90
Distribute: 8x + 75 - 5x = 90
Combine the X's and subtract the 75: 3x = 15
Divide the 3: x = 5

Now with our x, we can put 5 into the original equation x + y = 15 to get 5 + y = 15. Subtracting the 5, we get y = 10.

So, you have delivered 5 paper plate packages and 10 utensil packages.
