The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable:
x: number of years
y: total salary
We have then:
For first company:
y = 1500x + 31000
For second company:
y = 2000x + 28500
Equaling both equations we have:
1500x + 31000 = 2000x + 28500
Clearing x:
2000x - 1500x = 31000 - 28500
500x = 2500
x = 2500/500
x = 5
Answer:
It will take for the salaries to be the same about:
x = 5 years
Answer:
m=1
y= 5
Step-by-step explanation:
since y=mx+b
y=1x+5
Answer: $ 50 after rounding to nearest cent
Step-by-step explanation:
%age price
80 $39.96
100 x
using cross product rule
x=39.96*100/80= $49.95
The answer would be y = 1/3x - 1. Your y-intercept is -1 and your slope is 1/3x. I hope this helps love! :)
