The giving functions are from dofferent types. transforming a function does not change it's type so it is impossible to transfer f(x)=2 to f(x)=(x-3)^2-1.
First, set up the equation.
365x + 125 = 250x + 175
Second, combine like terms on the same side by subtracting 250x and 125 from both sides.
365x +125 = 250x + 175
-250x -125 -250x -125
__________________
115x = 50
Third, divide both sides by 115 to solve for x.
115x = 50
---- ----
115 115
Fourth, simplify.
x=50/115=10/23 or 0.435
Ok so linear equations come in the form
y = mx + b
B is the y-intercept. In this equation the y intercept is 40. A y- intercept is where the graph crosses the y axis so at the point (0,40) the graph crosses the y axis.
M is the slope which is rise over run so if the slope was 10 (which it is) 10 is equivalent to 10/1 so you move up 10 units for every 1 unit you move across.
So to graph this equation, you would draw your first point at (0,40). For your next point, you would move right one unit, and up 10 units. Draw a point there which would be (1, 50). Hopefully you understand. For going left from the y intercept point, you would move left 1 and down 10.
Actual graph above.
Hope this helps C:
