I think you have to figure out the gradient, so you take the 2 points and put it into the equation
change in y divided by change in x aka
y2-y1/x2-x1
so for question 3:
y2=4 and y1=3
(taken from the first and second coordinates)
x2=3 and y1=7
put these values jnto the equation
4-3/3-7 = 1/-4 (can be written as negative 1/4)
for question 4 its the same thing:
y2=9 and y1=5
x2=4 and x1=2
put into equation
9-5/4-2 = 4/2
hope this helps, im also hoping your teacher already has taught this because i didnt go into detail of where the equation came from, if not ask me and ill gladly help X
Answer: 35 divided by the difference of 12 and 5
Hey there!
For Part A, because the amount earned on Sunday isn't specified, we can call this additional income x. Because we're writing an expression, we don't need an equal sign. The expression will be (x + 14).
For Part B, "2 less than" will mean "– 2" and "twice than" will mean the amount of dogs that Alicia walked times 2. We can call the amount that Alicia walked y to avoid confusion with the last expression (though you could use whatever variable here) and your expression will be (2y – 2).
Hope this helped you out! :-)
