Answer:
Increasing
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that f(x) is the same as y in slope intercept form y = mx + b.
We don’t have a number for “b” which means the line goes across the origin.
Since 5 replaces m, that is the slope and since it’s positive, it is increasing.
Best of Luck!
Answer:
paper clips = $1.85
index cards = $3.95
Step-by-step explanation:
Mark
12 paper clips = x
10 index cards = y
$61.70 total
Janice
15 paper clips = x
7 index cards = y
$55.40 total
12x + 10y = 61.70
15x + 7y = 55.40
*** you want to cancel out one of the letters
(12x + 10y = 61.70) * -7
(15x + 7y = 55.40) * 10
-84x -70y = -431.9
150x + 70y = 554.0
150x + 70y = 554.0
-84x -70y = -431.9
66x + 0 = 122.1
66x = 122.1
x = 122.1 ÷ 66
x = 1.85
plug it back in
15(1.85) + 7y = 55.40
27.75 + 7y = 55.40
7y = 55.40 - 27.75
7y = 27.65
y = 27.65 ÷ 7
y = 3.95
Answer:
Use the value for the variable to solve for the other unknowns. Substitute the value for the variable into the expression for the number of seats on the middle level. Substitute the value for the variable into the expression for the number of seats on the lower level.
