Answer:
y = 3x + 30
Step-by-step explanation:
This is what the table should look like.
Number of Bars Sold (x) Total Earnings (dollars) (y)
0 30
1 33
2 36
3 39
When x = 0, y = 30. The point (0, 30) is the y-intercept.
As x goes up by 1, from 0 to 1, from 1 to 2, from 2 to 3, y goes up by 3, from 30 to 33, from 33 to 36, from 36 to 39.
A change of 1 in x results in a change of 3 in y.
That is a slope of 3 since
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is
y = mx + b
We have m = 3 and b = 30, so the equation is
y = 3x + 30
Answer: 3x + 30
A tree diagram is the answer
For this kind of problems, first find the method to solve, then face the fractions.
If I jog 100 miles in a year, and I do 2 miles a day. How many days did I jog?
We know easily that it is 100 days/ 2 miles/day = 50 days.
So the number of days is total distance / how much a day, or
(6 1/2) divided by (1/6)
It is the type of triangle, in which all the three sides are equal to each other.
Hope this helps!
If you plug in the x values of both (2, 8) and (4, 12) into each equation, you'll find that y = 2x + 4 gives you the correct y values for both (2, 8) and (4, 12). So that is your answer.
