First start with $623 and subtract the $152 deposit. Then divide that answer by 24, which equals 19.625. The monthly payment would be 19.63 monthly for 24 months.
if you look at delta y over x, you'll notice it always equals 2
i.e (22-2)/10-0 = 20/10 = 2
or (14-2)/6-0 = 12/6 = 2
or even (22-8)/10-3 = 14/7 = 2
This means that m (slope) is 2.
Now as for b. b is the y intercept and that value occurs when x = 0. On the table, when x = 0 y = 2 so b = 2.
y = mx + b becomes
y = 2x + 2
Answer:
1200 students at the school
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total number of students at the school
50% ride the bus
600 students ride the bus
x*50% = 600
Changing to decimal form
.50x = 600
Divide each side by .5
.50x/.5 = 600/.5
x =1200
