Answer:
slope = -2
y-intercept = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Find slope:
=
= -2
-2 = slope
2) Find y intercept trough point slope and slope-intercept forms
y - y1 = m (x - x1)
y - 9 = -2 (x + 2)
y - 9 = -2x -4
+ 9 + 9
y = -2x + 5
y = mx + b with b being the y-intercept
5 = y-intercept
Answer:
p = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
−0.63p − 5.04 + 3.57 = 7.05 + 2.21p
−0.63p − 1.47 = 7.05 + 2.21p (add 0.63p to both sides)
− 1.47 = 7.05 + 2.21p + 0.63p
− 1.47 = 7.05 + 2.84p (subtract 7.05 from both sides)
− 1.47 - 7.05 = 2.84p
-8.52 = 2.84p (rearrange)
2.84p = -8.52 (divide both sides by 2.84)
p = -8.52 / 2.84
p = -3
Your answer would be ( A ) 132 inches
Set it up like a regular equation. I used:

As you can see, however, I inserted the "less than" symbol rather than the equal sign because values greater than a certain value can also equal "x". Solve it like a normal equation and you will arrive at:
<u>
</u>

This means that, as long as x is greater than 45, "6x" will be greater than "3x+135". Thus, if you bring 46 students, the Science Center will cost less.
