The slope is equal to m in equation y=mx+b

Therefore the slope is m = -1 or A

Solve by substitution. Show each step of your work.<br><br> 2x + y = 7<br><br> 3x + 5y = 14
Monica [59]
Alright...simple...showing all steps.. ;)

You have the equations...

2x+y=7
and
3x+5y=14

To be able to even solve for any of the variables...multiply the equations by...2...and..3...

2x+y=7----*3--> 6x+3y=21
and
3x+5y=14-----*2--->6x+10y=28

Thus,

6x+3y=21
-
6x+10y=28

=========

-7y=-7

y=1

Now, plug y back into any of the original equations....we'll use 2x+y=7 in this case....

2x+(1)=7

2x+1=7
      -1  -1

2x=6

x=3

Thus, the point of intersection for these two equations is (3,1)

While mining Fred found a large metal bar that contained 24 ounces of nickel. Fred also determined that the bar was 80% nickel.
frutty [35]

Answer:

Not that I'm a chemistry expert but mathematically,The total weight of the bar is directly proportional to the known weight of the bar and the given percentage. I worked it out and found that the the total weight of the bar is 30 ounces. This is how I did it

Step-by-step explanation:

80:24

100:n

80(n)=100×24

A little equation and after it's solve the variable (n) will be equal to 30

The unit is added after calculations so that's how the answer is <em><u>3</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>oun</u></em><em><u>ces</u></em>

Consider the rates 45 mile in 8 minutes and 4 minutes to travel 25 mile. Select the statement(s) that are true. Multiple select
icang [17]

Answer:

F) The rates are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the rates 45 mile in 8 minutes and 4 minutes to travel 25 mile. Select the statement(s) that are true. Multiple select question.

We find the unit rates

a) 45 mile in 8 minutes , we find the unit rate in miles per minute

8 minutes = 45 miles

1 minute = x

8 × x = 45 miles × 1 minute

x = 45 miles/8 minutes

x = 5.625 miles/ minute

b) 4 minutes to travel 25 miles. Find the unit rate is minutes per mile

25 miles = 4 minutes

1 mile = x

25miles × x = 4 minutes × 1

x = 4 minutes/25 miles

x = 0.16 minutes/mile

Hence, the correct option is

F) The rates are not equivalent.

Rates like $ per channel is a slope, "m". The added fee is a constant so it's the intercept "b".
y = mx + b

So for the first problem (9)
(a)
y = total cost in dollars
x = number of premium channels
y = 16x + 44
(b) when x = 3 channels
y = 16(3) + 44
y = 92 $

the second problem (10)
(a) every 4 years the tree grows by 12-9=3 ft
So the unit rate or slope will be 3 ft per 4 yrs, (3/4). You can see this also by solving for slope "m" using the given points (4,9) and (8,12).

x = number of years
y = height of tree in ft
y = (3/4)x + b
use one of the points to find the y-intercept "b".

9 = (3/4)(4) + b
9 = 3 + b
9 - 3 = b
6 = b
y = (3/4)x + 6

(b) when x = 16
y = (3/4)(16) + 6
y = 12 + 6
y = 18 ft
