Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to figure out how many square feet one paint can will be able to paint, then take the 24 square feet and divide it by the how much the paint can can paint, then you’ll have how many paint cans you need
Answer:
y = 1/6x -4
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope
m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-5 - -3)/( -6 -6)
= (-5+3)/ (-6-6)
= -2/-12
= 1/6
The slope intercept form is
y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 1/6 x +b
Substitute a point into the equation
-5 = 1/6(-6) +b
-5 = -1+b
Add 1 to each side
-4 = b
y = 1/6x -4
$2 per notebook would be the correct answer
Answer:
(x, y) = (1, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll write these equations in general form, then solve using the cross-multiplication method.
43x +67y +24 = 0
67x +43y -24 = 0
∆1 = (43)(43) -(67)(67) = -2640
∆2 = (67)(-24) -(43)(24) = -2640
∆3 = (24)(67) -(-24)(43) = 2640
These go into the relations ...
1/∆1 = x/∆2 = y/∆3
x = ∆2/∆1 = -2640/-2640 = 1
y = ∆3/∆1 = 2640/-2640 = -1
The solution is (x, y) = (1, -1).

<em>Additional comment</em>
The cross multiplication method isn't taught everywhere. The attachment explains a bit about it. Our final relationship changes the order of the fractions to 1, x, y from x, y, 1. That way, we can use the equation coefficients in their original general-form order. (The fourth column in the 2×4 array of coefficients is a repeat of the first column.)
