Plug in the x+3 for y.
8x-x+3=12
7x=9
X=1.3
Then, y= -0.25
The slope is 0.10
The y-intercept is 30
The slope, which is 0.10, represents how much is changed per mile driven.
The y-intercept, which is 30, represents the base price to rent the car.
c = 0.10m + 30 represents the situation.
32
the greatest common factor of 480 and 128 is 32
480 / 32 = 15
128 / 32 = 4
Since the plot of "The Wife of Bath's Tale" has at its heart a loathly lady who shape-shifts into a beautiful, young damsel, we might expect appearances to be important here. And they are, just not for the reason you might think. For instead of this being a tale about how a knight learns to appreciate people for what's on the inside and that outer appearances don't matter, it's a tale about how a knight learns to give up sovereignty to his wife. That sovereignty includes power over the body. The loathly lady's physical appearance becomes an important symbol of that body, so that, at the end of the tale, when she offers her husband a choice about how he wants her to look, she's in essence offering him control of her body. He grants this control back to her, thus proving his understanding of the doctrine of women's sovereignty in marriage. Medieval stories don't necessarily go in for the whole 'appearances don't mean anything' maxim anyway, as we've seen in the "General Prologue<span>."</span>
