X = 9
y = 6

Step by step:

Divide 15 by 2: 15 ÷ 2 = 7.5
Subtract 0.5 from 7.5 (this will later be added back): 7.5 - 0.5 = 7
Subtract 1 from 7 (she wants to buy at least 2 more children books): 7 - 1 = 6
Subtract 6 from 15 (6 being the number of puzzle books, 15 being the total number of items): 15 - 6 = 9 (number of children books)

How to solve Y=1/2X+2
Oxana [17]
<span>x-intercept is when y = 0

0 = -1/2x - 2
1/2x = -2
x = -4
x-intercept = (-4,0)

y-intercept is when x = 0

y = -1/2(0) - 2
y = -2
y-intercept = (0, -2)
(note that in the form y = mx+b, b is the y-intercept, so in y = -1/2x - 2, -2 is the y-intercept)

Now to graph, simply plot these two points (-4, 0) and (0, -2) and draw a line between them.

Best of luck!</span>
