15 boxes is three times 5 boxes so the number of dishes in 15 boxes is
3 * 125
= 375 dishes
Answer:
Slope:-63
Y-intercept: (0,825)
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope= y2-y1 ÷ x2-x1
321-699 ÷ 8-2
-378 ÷ 6 =-63
Y-intercept:
y=-63x+b
to get b (y-intercept) plug in one of the points and solve.
699=-63(2)+b
699=-126+b
699+126=-126+126+b
699+126=0+b
825=b
Answer: No, it is not a solution
==========================================================
Explanation:
The point (3,-4) means that x = 3 and y = -4 pair up together
Let's plug these x,y values into each equation
Starting with the first equation, we get,
y = 4x-16
-4 = 4(3)-16 ... x replaced with 3; y replaced with -4
-4 = 12-16
-4 = -4 .... this is a true statement
Repeat for the second equation
y = 2x-6
-4 = 2(3)-6
-4 = 6-6
-4 = 0 ... this is false
Since we get a false statement, this means (3,-4) is not on the line y = 2x-6, which means that overall (3,-4) is not a solution to the system of equations. The point (3,-4) must make both equations true for it to be a solution.
