To factor a trinomial in the form x2 + bx + c, find two integers, r and s, whose product is c and whose sum is b. Rewrite the trinomial as x2 + rx + sx + c and then use grouping and the distributive property to factor the polynomial. The resulting factors will be (x + r) and (x + s)

The county fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides. Jermaine bought 25 tickets for the rides and spent a total of $43.75 at

satela [25.4K]

The total cost is the dependant variable and the number of tickets along with flat out price is the independent variable.

The equation would be y = 1.25x + ?

You would insert 25 for x which equals 31.25 and insert 43.75 for y.

43.75 = 31.25 + ? Then subtract 31.25 from both sides of the equation and you would get....

12.5 = ?

That is your flat rate to get in to the fair

What is the equation of the following line? (1,7) (0,0)

elena-s [515]

Anytime x = 0 in a point the y intercept is immediately defined.

y = mx + b The y intercept is b

y = 0 + b

0 = 0 + b

b = 0

What you know so for is

y = mx + b

y = mx since b = 0

7 = m*1

m = 7

The answer is y = 7x <<<<<<Answer.

Use the substitution method <br> Y=-2x+11 y=-3x+21

gogolik [260]

Solve for the first variable in one of the equations, then substitute the result into the other equation.

Y = 2 y /3 − 3

x = − y /3 + 7

Hope this helped!

Help on area of composite figures

balandron [24]

break it up into simpler shapes. See the photo.
There is:
trapezoid
A = 0.5(3.2+6.5)4.5
= 21.825

triangle
A = 0.5(2.7)4.5
= 6.075

rectangle
A = 1.8(4.5)
= 8.1

Total Area = 21.825 + 6.075 + 8.1
= 36
