A linear equation can be represented by:
y = mx + b
Where m = slope, and b = y intercept.
The slope is a rate of change, so our slope is $150.
The y intercept is the point where the equation crosses the y axis, or the "initial amount" in this case $500.
So our equation will be:
y = 150x + 500.
Answer:
x=8,y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
x-2y=10
x=10+2y
10+2y+3y=5
5y=-5
y=-1
x-2(-1)=10
x=8
You would use unit rate for this. If Austin makes $209 in 11 hours, then he makes 209/11 = 19 dollars in 1 hour.
Then, we can make a proportion:
$19/1 hour = $152/ x hours
Cross multiply:
152 = 19x
Solve for x to get:
x = 8 hours.
