Michelle went shopping for some clothes and found a pair of slacks that cost

Mathematics
1 answer:
rjkz [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The sirt cost $7.5 before tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the pair of slacks cost twice as much as the shirt, we have:

slacks = 2*shirt

And the total purchase was $22.5, so we have:

slacks + shirt = 22.5

We can create a system of equations such as:

slacks = 2*shirt

slacks + shirt = 22.5

If we apply the first formula on the second we can solve for the value of the shirt, we have:

2*shirt + shirt = 22.5

3*shirt = 22.5

shirt = 22.5/3 = 7.5

So the slacks cost:

slacks = 2*7.5 = 15

Here’s a graph of a linear function write the equation that describes that function
shtirl [24]

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = 1/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, start with two points that are on the line. We'll use (0, 3) and (4, 4). Now we can use the slope formula to find the slope.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (4 - 3)/(4 - 0)

m = 1/4

Now that we have this, we can use that slope and a point in point-slope form. Then we solve for y to get the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 3 = 1/4(x - 0)

y - 3 = 1/4x

y = 1/4x + 3
