Linear functions have to have the same slope between any 2 points
find the slope betwen them
slope betwen 2 points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y1-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(1,12) and (3,9)
slope=(9-12)/(3-1)=-3/2
if we wanted to chek furthere, we check (3,9) and (5,6) and fnd that the slope is also -3/2
so
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint
y=-3/2x+b
find b
if x=1 then y=12
12=-3/2+b
add 3/2 both sides
12+3/2=b
13+1/2=b
26/2+1/2=b
27/2=b
y=-3/2x+27/2
try them
we have 2 x values
7 and 3
input them and see their outputs
for x=7
y=-3/2(7)+27/2
y=-21/2+27/2
y=6/2
y=3
(7,3) is a valid point
for x=3
hold a second, we already have a x=3
it is (3,9)
none of them
answer is (7,3)

Answer:
A bag of chips costs $1
A pickle costs $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
P + 2c = 3.25 Start with these two equations
3p + 4c = 7.25
p = -2c + 3.25 Solve for one variable
3(-2c +3.25) + 4c = 7.25 Substitute
-6c + 9.75 + 4c = 7.25
-2c = -2
c = 1
p + 2(1) = 3.25 Substitute
p + 2 = 3.25
p = 1.25
28+24=52
So we make a sum of what's going to equal 52 in small packets.
I found 4x13=52. 13 would be the number of packets......
BUT!! Since it MUST be equal dark and milk and we have 28 and 26,
you would have to eliminate 1 pack because all 4 would be milk chocolate.
So that is only 12 packets.
4 per pack so that would be 2 dark and 2 milk per packet.
