Answer:
<em>The zero of the line is (2,0)</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line passing through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be found as:

We are given the points (1,-3) and (4,6). Substituting:

Operating:


The zero of this line can be found by making y=0 and solving for x:
0+3=3(x-1)
3=3x-3
Adding 3:
6=3x
Solving:
x = 2
The zero of the line is (2,0)
Let C be the amount of compost
T be the amount of topsoil
Each compost cost = $25
Cost of C compost = 25C
Each topsoil cost = $15
Cost of T topsoil = 15T
Amount of compost + amount of topsoil = 10
C + T = 10 -------> Equation 1
cost of C compost + cost of T topsoil = 180
25C + 15T = 180 --------> equation 2
Solve the first equation for C
C + T = 10
C = 10 - T
Now plug it in second equation
25C + 15T = 180
25 ( 10 - T) +15T = 180
250 - 25T + 15T = 180 (combine like terms)
250 - 10 T = 180 (Subtract 250 on both sides)
-10T = 180 - 250
-10T = -70 ( divide by -10 on both sides)
T = 7
She purchased 7 cubic yards of topsoil .
Answer: do you mean, “if you have the y-int, what else do you need to write an equation?”
If that’s what you mean then you need the slope

Answer:
7.5
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
x^2 -2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 1 )(x - 1)
FOIL
first: x*x = x^2
Outer: -1x
inner: -1x
Last: -1*-1 = 1
Add these together
x^2 -1x-1x+1
x^2 -2x+1
