Problem 13a

Each column of the table represents an (x,y) pairing. The first column has x = 0 and y = 2 so (0,2) is one point on this line. Since x = 0 here, this means that we have the y intercept. The y intercept is 2. We'll use this later.

Another point on this line is (3,8) which is drawn from the second column.

Use the two points (0,2) and (3,8) to find the slope m
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (8-2)/(3-0)
m = 6/3
m = 2

Since the slope is 2 and the y intercept is 2 (see above), this means m = 2 and b = 2

Plug those into y = mx+b and we get y = 2x+2

Answer: y = 2x+2

==============================================
Problem 13b

(0,20) is on the line as the first column shows. The y intercept is 20 since x = 0 here. So b = 20

Another point on this line is (3,8) as drawn from the second column

Slope: 
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (8-20)/(3-0)
m = -12/3
m = -4

Use the slope (m = -4) and the y intercept (b = 20) to get...
y = mx+b
y = -4x+b ... replace m with -4
y = -4x+20 ... replace b with 20

Answer: y = -4x+20

==============================================
Problem 13c

(2,5) and (4,8) are on the line. These two points are drawn from columns 1 and 2 respectively.

Slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (8-5)/(4-2)
m = 3/2
m = 1.5

Note: the fraction 3/2 is equivalent to the decimal form 1.5

Use the slope m = 1.5 along with (x,y) = (2,5) to find the value of b
y = mx+b
y = 1.5x+b ... m is replaced with 1.5
5 = 1.5*2+b ... plug in (x,y) = (2,5)
5 = 3+b
5-3 = 3+b-3
2 = b
b = 2

So we can now update y = mx+b to y = 1.5x+2

Answer: y = 1.5x+2

Note: If your teacher wants a fraction instead of a decimal (for the slope), then you would write y = \frac{3}{2}x+2
==============================================
Problem 13d

(0,20) is on the line. So the y intercept is 20, indicating that b = 20

(3,11) is also on the line

Again as done with 13a-13c, I'm only looking at the first two columns. 

Slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (11-20)/(3-0)
m = -9/3
m = -3

Therefore
y = mx+b
turns int
y = -3x+20
after replacing m and b with the values we found earlier

Answer: y = -3x+20

Ket [755]
You multiply -21 by 14 to find x, and that would be -21 x 14 = -294, and that is your answer.

A store is having a sale on walnuts and chocolate chips. For 2 pounds of walnuts and 5 pounds of chocolate chips, the total cost
oksian1 [2.3K]
It will be $2.50 for each pound of walnuts, and it will be $1 for each pound of chocolate chips.

I know this hold true because when we multiply $2.50 by 2, we get $5, and add that to the other $5 from the chocolate chips and we will get $10. We can also multiply $2.50 by 8 and add $3 from chocolate chips to get $20 + $3, or $23.
