Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = (-1/4)x - 4 has a y-intercept of (0, -4). Place a dark dot at (0, -4).
Now we use the info from the slope, -1/4:
Starting with your pencil point on the dot (0, -4), move the pencil point 4 units to the right and then 1 unit down. You will now be at (4, -5). Place a dark dot there.
Then draw a straight, solid line through (0, -4) and (4, -5).
What’s the equation given ?
8/14 in lowest terms is 4/7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent:
Number of children = x = 59
Number of Adults = y = 166
On a certain hot summer's day, 225 people used the public swimming pool.
x + y = 225
x = 225 - y
The daily prices are $1.75 for children and $2.00 for adults. The receipts for admission totaled $435.25.
$1.75 × x + $2.00 × y = $435.25
1.75x + 2y = 435.25
We substitute 225 - y for x
Hence:
1.75(225 - y ) + 2y = 435.25
393.75 - 1.75y + 2y = 435.25
Collect like terms
-1.75y + 2y = 435.25 - 393.75
0.25y = 41.5
y = 41.5/0.25
y = 166 Adults
Note that:
x = 225 - y
x = 225 - 166
x = 59 children
Hence, the number of children is 59 and the number of Adults is 166
