1. find slope
x=tickets sold
y=money made
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
take any point
(5,23.75) and (10,47.50)
input (note, (x,y))
(47.50-23.75)/(10-5)=23.75/5=4.75
slope=4.75
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yintercept
y=4.75x+b
input
47.5=4.75(10)+b
47.5=47.5+b
b=0
equation is y=4.75x
if ticket sold is 24 then x=24
y=4.75(24)
y=114
answer is $114
2. points
(0,56.00) and (3,45.5)
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope=(45.5-56.00)/(3-0)=-3.5
y=-3.5x
slope=-3.5
logic it yourself
equation is
y=-3.5x+0
y intercept is when x=0 so when the start of it was or when time=0
x intercept is when y=0 is when he has no money left
1.a. rate of change=4.75
b. $114
2. a.do this yourself, (desmos graphing calculator)
b. slope=-3.5 (duh, means money goes down with time)
c. equaiton is y=-3.5x+0, xint meanss when he has no money, y int means when time=0 or when it started
Answer:
Let F = Fran's income
Let W = Winston's income
Combined income is 80000 ==> F + W = 80000
One quarter of Winston's income is the same as one-sixth of Fran's income ==>
(1/4)*W = (1/6)*F
Multiply the 2nd equation by 12 to clear the fractions
3*W = 2*F
Solve this equation for F
F = (3/2)*W
Substitute this value for F into the 1st equation
(3/2)*W + W = 80000
(5/2)*W = 80000
W = (2/5)*80000 = 32000
So F = 80000 - 32000 = 48000
So Winston earns 32000 and Fran earns 48000
Check: One quarter of Winston's income is 32000/4 = 8000
One sixth of Fran'e income is 48000/6 = 8000
Step-by-step explanation: Hope this helps
I agree with the answer being B because since it's a common ratio you could just multiply -1/4 with -2 and keep doing that with each new term
