Hi there!
To derive an equation given the points, we can use the slope formula:
Plug in the corresponding coordinates:
Simplify:
Therefore, we have:
y = -4x + b
Plug in the x and y values for a coordinate to solve for b:
2 = -4(1) + b
2 = -4 + b
b = 6
The equation is:
y = -4x + 6. The correct answer is D.
Answer:
We would save $1.52 cents
Step-by-step explanation:
3 the pencil were at sale for 25 cent
1 pencil = 25 cent/3 =8.33 cent per one pencil
5 the pencil were at sale for 29 cent
1 pencil = 29 cent/5 =5.8 cent per one pencil
If we bought 60 pencil in group of 3 for 25 cent
=60/3= 20 pencil
25cents * 20 pencil = 500 cent per 60 pencil
If we bought 60 pencil in group of 5 for 29 cent
=60/5= 12 pencil
29cents * 12 pencil = 348 cent per 60 pencil
From the analysis, the 5 pencil for 29 cent is cheaper are we are going to save: 500-348= 152 cents
