Answer:
X = 9 months
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the number of months when the cost of each payment
are the same, you should equate the two cost. First establish the equations
Let A be the cost of first payment method
B is the cost of the second payment method
X is the number of months
A = 38x + 15
B = 31x + 78
38x + 15 = 31x + 78
7x = 63
X = 9 months
Answer:
Step 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You should isolate the variable, not try to get rid of it. Also, you have to divide both sides by the same number or variable(can't divide one side by a and the other side by 7- it has to be the same).
16 ounces in a pound
2.40 for 3 ounces
16 divided by 3 = 5.333
12.8
Approx $12.80 for 1 pound of cinnamon
Answer:
equation: y = 12x
Dr. Betz worked for 8 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation we'll use the form y = mx, where y represents the amount of time the Doctor worked, m is the amount of minutes it takes to treat each animal, and x is how many animals have been treated. We know the value of m is 12, so let's put that into the equation:
y = 12x
Now we have our equation. We can use it to see how long Dr. Betz worked. He treated a total of 40 animals - 20 including the shaggy dog, and 20 after the shaggy dog. let's replace x with 40:
y = 12(40)
Now solve:
y = 480
Dr. Betz worked for 480 minutes. There are 60 minutes in an hour. Divide 480 by 60 to find out how many hours Dr. Betz worked for:
480/60 = 8
Dr. Betz worked for 8 hours.
The answer in slope intercept form is y = 6x-11
If you want the answer in standard form, then it would be 6x-y =11
notes:
* Slope intercept form is y = mx+b
* Standard form is Ax+By = C
=====================================
Explanation:
The given slope is m = 6
The line goes through (x,y) = (3,7)
Plug those three values into the equation below. Isolate b
y = mx+b
7 = 6*3+b
7 = 18+b
7-18 = 18+b-18 ... subtract 18 from both sides
-11 = b
b = -11
So because m = 6 and b = -11, this means y = mx+b turns into y = 6x-11
The answer in slope intercept form is y = 6x-11
To convert to standard form Ax+By = C, we just have to get all the x and y terms together on the same side. I'm going to move the y term to the right side and move the 11 to the left side
y = 6x-11
y+11 = 6x-11+11
y+11 = 6x
y+11-y = 6x-y
11 = 6x-y
6x-y = 11
The answer in standard form is
6x-y = 11
which is a different way to write the same line
