Find the rate of change, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), from the data given...
(2.16-1.26)/(12-7)=0.18
(1.26-0.72)/(7-4)=0.18
Since the rate is constant, this is a linear equation of the form y=mx+b. Furthermore, since 0 pencils cost 0, b=0, so the cost of the pencils is simply the number of pencils times 18 cents...
c(p)=0.18p (cost with respect to pencils is 0.18 times the number of pencils)
Answer:
(x, y) = (- 2, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
3y = 11 - 2x → (1)
3x = y - 11 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing y in terms of x
add 11 to both sides
y = 3x + 11 → (3)
Substitute y = 3x + 11 into (1)
3(3x + 11) = 11 - 2x
9x + 33 = 11 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )
11x + 33 = 11 ( subtract 33 from both sides )
11x = - 22 ( divide both sides by 11 )
x = - 2
Substitute x = - 2 in (3) for corresponding value of y
y = (3 × - 2) + 11 = - 6 + 11 = 5
As a check
substitute x = - 2, y = 5 into (1) and (2) and if the left side equals the right side then these values are the solution.
(1) : left side = (3 × 5) = 15
right side = 11 - (2 × - 2) = 11 + 4 = 15 ⇒ left = right
(2) : left side = (3 × - 2 ) = - 6
right side = 5 - 11 = - 6 ⇒ left = right
solution = (- 2, 5 )
in plain and short, to graph an inequality, we first graph its EQUALITY graph, and then we do the shading.
so to graph y > x + 3, we first graph y = x + 3, which is just a line, and then do a true/false check on a point to see which side we shade.
let's hmmm check the point say (0,2), x = 0, y = 2.
y > x + 3
2 > 0 + 3
2 > 3 <--- is that true? is 2 really larger than 3? nope, so is false.
that simply means that the point (0, 2) is on the false area, so that's the area we do NOT shade, so <u>we shade the other side</u>.
y > x + 3, means "y" is greater than or larger than that line, but not equals, larger not equal, meaning the values on the borderline are not included, so the line is a dashed line.
check the picture below.
Since they are vertical they are equal to each other.
3x + 4 = 7x - 9
4 = 4x - 9
13 = 4x
3.25 = x
So the value of x is 3.25.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
$6.48
Step-by-step explanation:
It would be $6.48 because 1.60 times 4 1/2 is 7.2 and if you do 10% of 7.2 you get B.
