Answer:
36 erasers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of erasers be e
let number of rulers be r
We can write:
e + r = 70
and
After giving away, he has
Erasers: 2/3e
Rulers: r - 10
These two are equal, so we can write and solve:
2/3e = r - 10
2/3e + 10 = r
Putting this in initial equation, we have:
e + (2/3e + 10) = 70
5/3e + 10 = 70
5/3 e = 60
e = 36
And rulers is:
r = 2/3(36) + 10 = 34
Hence, he had 36 erasers in the beginning
Answer: slope is -3 and y-intercept is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
when x= 0, y=-2
when x=1, y=-5
i believe you have just to change the value of the letter x in the equation to find the value of y
If the slope is given then all is left is y-intercept which is equal to -3 which is also given in the question from the point (-4,-3), then your equation would be complete if you have these two so I think the answer is y=3/4x-3 and I’m really sorry if my answer is wrong but i tried my best and good luck!!
