Hi there!
First, let's find the slope of the two points using the slope formula (y2 - y1 / x2 - x1).
S = 4 - 2 / 3 - 5
S = 2 / -2
S = -1
Next, we'll plug in the slope and a point into point-slope form (y - y1 = s(x - x1)) in order to find an equation. I will show the work using both points, which will result in two different equations.
(2,5)
y - 5 = -1(x - 2)
y - 5 = -x + 2
y = -x + 7
(4,3)
y - 3 = -1(x - 4)
y - 3 = -x + 4
y = -x + 7
The two equations came out the same! Which is completely okay, and happens sometimes.
Hope this helps!! :)

Given:Price of one taco = x; price of 2 tacos = 2xPrice of salad = $2.50Sales tax = 8% of the combined price of two tacos and a salad, namely .08(2x + 2.50)Tip = constant fee = $3.00Total bill = $13.80 Therefore the equation becomes
2x + 2.50 + .08(2x + 2.50) + 3 = 13.80 Solutions: 2x + 2.50 + .16x + .20 + 3 = 13.80 (using the distributive property to multiply 2x and 2.5 by .08).2.16x + 2.70 + 3 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 (combining like terms)2.16x + 5.70 = 13.80 - 5.70 (subtraction property of equality)2.16x = 8.10x = 8.10/2.16 = 3.75 (division property of equality)
The cost of a single taco is $3.75
It's A: L =704cm2; S =936cm2
because your multiplying your length and width (8x9) =72
multiply 72 by the height and you get your answer for S = 936cm2
M-6 is the expression that shows how far Allison has to run
