Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:



The expression x-4 will come out to be a negative integer. That means X <em>has to be </em>something that when 4 is taken away from it, the answer is still negative.
Let's try 5.
5-4 is 1. Is 1 negative? No, so that doesn't work.
4-4 is 0. 0 isn't negative either, so that doesn't work.
3-4 is -1. Is -1 negative? YES! Let's try it for 2 as well, just to be safe.
2-4 is -2. Still negative.
X can be anything less than 4.
Nick had 3 1/4 bottles before, and he had 1 2/4 bottles left, so that means
3 1/4 - 1 2/4 = 1.75
1.75= 1 3/4.
So, I do not agree with nick.
Hope this helps!!! :)
The y-intercept is being changed. In the equations given we are using the formula (y=mx +b), b means the y intercept. In this we are changing the y intercept from 2 to -1. There is nothing else being changed.
