Answer: option c
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the x-intercept and y-intercept of each line.
To find the x-intercept, substitute into the equation and solve for "x".
To find the y-intercept, substitute into the equation and solve for "y".
- For the first equation:
x-intercept
y-intercept
Graph a line that passes through the points (7.25, 0) and (0, 9.66)
- For the second equation:
x-intercept
y-intercept
Graph a line that passes through the points (0.5, 0) and (0, -0.33)
Observe the graph attached. You can see that point of intersection of the lines is (5,3); then this is the solution of the system. Therefore:
Answer:
80 lemons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of lemons that were on the tree.
We can use this to set up an equation:
Note that percentages can also be written as that number over 100.
Simplify the fraction.
Multiply both sides by 5
Divide both sides by 2
There were 80 lemons on the tree before he picked the lemons.
