Answer: 21

Explanation:

Space on book with p lines per page

= 120p

Amount of space needed to give the same space as initial

= 140(p - 3)

= 140p - 420

Hence we can form the equation:

140p - 420 = 120p

20p = 420

<u>p</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>1</u>

Write each equation in slope-intercept form (3,4); and (-6,-2)
Alborosie

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Given 2 points you can find the slope using (y-y1)/(x-x1)

m = (-2-4)/(-6-3) = -6/-9 = 2/3

To find b use one of the points and m and plug into the slope intercept form and then solve for b.

y=mx+b

4=2/3(3) + b

4=2 + b

b=2

Now we can write the final equation as : (plug m and b back in)

y = 2/3x + 2
