So assuming that the total =27
r+b=27
r=-5+3b
r=3b-5
subsitute 3b-5 for r in first equation
3b-5+b=27
4b-5=27
add 5
4b=32
divide by 4
b=8
subsitute
b+r=27
8+r=27
subtracct 8
r=19
red=19
blue=8

$1,216
Step-by-step explanation:
Costs for Handsome Homes fabric
Area (sq. ft.) Cost (dollars)
(x) (y)
250 475
500 950
750 1,420
1000 1,900
If you divide any y-value by its corresponding x-value, the quotient will be 1.9
This means that each square foot costs $1.90 at Handsome Homes
Discount Diggers = 20% per sq. ft. less than Handsome homes
Discount Diggers = $1.90 - 20%
Discount Diggers = $1.90(100 - 20%)
Discount Diggers = $1.90(0.8)
Discount Diggers = $1.52
Now that it is known how much 1 square foot of fabric costs at Discount Diggers, we need to find how much 800 square feet of fabric costs.
$1.52 = 1 sq. ft.
$1.52(800) = 800 sq. ft.
$1,216
800 square feet of landscape fabric at Discount Diggers costs $1,216
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x _1
4 - 2 / 3 - (-1) = 2/4 = 1/2
y +4 = 1/2 (x + 3) distributive property
y + 4 = 1/2x + 1.5
y= 1/2x - 5/2 subtraction (you subtract 4 from both sides) (-5/2 = -2.5)
therefore your equation is y = 1/2x - 5/2
hope this helps :)
