First write the equation in slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as <em>y = mx + b</em> form where the <em>m </em>or the coefficient of the x term represents the slope of the <em>b</em> or the constant term represents the y-intercept.
Subtract 2x from both sides to get <em>y = -2x - 4</em>.
I put the x term first because that's how it is in y = mx + b form.
Now we can see that the <em>b</em> or the constant term is -4.
We can write this as the ordered pair (0, -4).
Keep in mind when writing a y-intercept as an ordered pair, your x-coordinate will always be 0 in the ordered pair.
3449995000 is what I got, I did 3.45x10^9 and then used that number and subtracted the answer from 0.5x10^4 to get the final answer, if that makes any sense.
Answer:
A. The y-intercept represents the amount of money Stephanie has. She started at -16 because she spent $16.
B. The x-intercept is the amount of cups of lemonade she sold. On the graph, it shows that after 8 cups, she made 16 dollars back. She didn't make any profit sense she started at -16.
C. The slope represents how much she made after so many cups of lemonade were sold. It was after 8 cups of lemonade were sold that she started making a profit.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: you sold 10 adult tickets and 11 children tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of adult tickets that you sold.
Let y represent the number of children tickets that you sold.
You sold a total of 21 tickets. This means that
x + y = 21
Admission prices are six dollars for adults and four dollars for children. You sell tickets for admission to your school play and collect a total of $104. This means that
6x + 4y = 104 - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 21 - y into equation 1, it becomes
6(21 - y) + 4y = 104
126 - 6y + 4y = 104
- 6y + 4y = 104 - 126
- 2y = - 22
y = - 22/ -2 = 11
Substituting y = 11 into x = 21 - y, it becomes
x = 21 - 11 = 10
