Answer:

The slope is \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula is \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

(8, 7) is (x1, y1)

(4, 5) is (x2, y2)

Plug in the values:

\frac{5-7}{4-8}

solve:

\frac{-2}{-4}

\frac{1}{2}

The slope is \frac{1}{2}

Suzanne bought 50 apples at the apple orchard. She bought 4 times as many red apples as green apples. How many more red apples t
Natali [406]
Let x = the number of green apples, let 4x = the number of red apples
4x + x = 50         Set up the quation
5x = 50               Combine like terms
----   ----               Divide by 5 on both sides to get x alone
5      5
x = 10 green apples
4x = 4(10) = 40 red apples 

40 - 10 = 30. Suzanne bought 30 more red apples than green apples.

One number is three more than a second number. Three times the first is 13 less than 5 times the second.
irakobra [83]

14 and 11

let x be the second number then the first number = x + 3 ( 3 more than second)

Also 3(x + 3) = 5x - 13

3x + 9 = 5x - 13

subtract 3x from both sides

9 = 5x - 3x - 13

9 = 2x - 13

add 13 to both sides

22 = 2x

divide both sides by 2

11 = x → second number

first number = x + 3 = 11 + 3 = 14
