Answer:
m - 1
c - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is in slope-intercept form.
y = mx + c
m - slope
c (or b) - y -intercept
Usually if the slope is one it will not be written.
y = 1x + 6
The slope is one.
6 takes 'c's place, so it is the y-intercept.
Hope this helps.
The correct answer for this question is this one: "<span>147"</span>
Here's how to solve this problem.
Let <span>x = number of mystery books on the shelf </span>
<span>Let 3x = total number of books on the shelf </span>
<span>we are told that </span>
<span>x/5<10<x/4 </span>
<span>multiply by 20, </span>
<span>4x<200<5x </span>
<span>which means that </span>
<span>40<x<50 </span>
<span>So the number of mystery books can be any number between 41 and 49.
In other words, the possible total number of books could be three times the above numbers, 123, 126, 129,.... </span>
Choose the one that suits your answer choices.
Here are the following choices:
Which could be the number of books on the shelf?
A. 120 B 140 c 147 D 150
Answer:
its D i just took the test :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 3cups = 9cups ... and they are asking how much water would go in 2cups of sugar .. then the answer would be ..
6cups of water
because you cross multiply.
Let's make some variables to represent the cost of the tables and chairs.
Let x be equal to the cost of one chair
Let y be equal to the cost of one table
The total cost for 3 chairs and 2 tables is $17.
3x + 2y = 17
The total cost for 8 chairs and 4 tables is $37.
8x + 4y = 37
Now we have our system of equations.
Let's solve it.
3x + 2y = 17
8x + 4y = 37
We can cancel the y's very easily. Then it would just leave us with the x's.
Multiply the top equation by -2.
3x(-2) + 2y(-2) = 17(-2) =
-6x - 4y = -34
Then add the equations together.
-6x - 4y = -34
8x + 4y = 37
=
2x = 3
Then just divide both sides by 2.
x = 1.5
Substitute 1.5 into one of the equation. I'll pick 3x + 2y = 17
3(1.5) + 2y = 17 ; Start
4.5 + 2y = 17 ; Multiply 3 and 1.5 together
2y = 12.5 ; Subtract 4.5 from each side of the equation
y = 6.25 ; Divide both sides by the coefficient of y. Which 2
So, a chair costs $1.50 and a table costs $6.25.
