Answer:

He bought approximately 16 pigs.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find how many pigs the farmer had originally all you have to do is add three to amount of pigs he sold, since three of the died. In order to find how many he sold all you need to do is divide 109 by 8, since he made a profit of $8 per pig. 109 / 8 = 13.625, 13.625 + 3 = 16.625

John’s teacher gave him the following system of equations and asked him to find the point of intersection. 3x + 2 = y 2x – 3= y
Galina-37 [17]

1) to this case you must match both equations

3x+2 = 2x-3 ⇒3x-2x = -3-2⇒x= -5

now the value of x  substitute it in the any of two equations, y = 3(-5)+2 = -13

and the other equation is the same value

y = 2(-5)-3 = -13

the point is ( -5,-13)

Write an equation in point slope and slope intercept form of a line that passes through the given point and
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Point slope is ( Y+4) = 1/2(x+3)

Slope intercept is Y = 1/2(x) -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For the point slope form.

Given the point as (-3,-4)

And the gradient m = 1/2

Point slope form is

(Y - y1) = m(x-x1)

So

X1 = -3

Y1 = -4

(Y - y1) = m(x-x1)

(Y - (-4)) = 1/2(x -(-3))

( Y+4) = 1/2(x+3)

For the slopes intercept form

Y = mx + c

We can continue from where the point slope form stopped.

( Y+4) = 1/2(x+3)

2(y+4)= x+3

2y + 8 = x+3

2y = x+3-8

2y = x-5

Y = x/2 - 5/2

Y = 1/2(x) -5/2

Where -5/2 = c

1/2 = m

Over [174]
<span>The mid-point or the number that divides a series of values into two groups of equal numbers of values is referred to as the median. To get the median value, first sort the numbers from highest to lowest or lowest to highest and then pick the middle number. However, for even numbered sets of numbers, take the average of the two middle numbers and the resulting number is the median. </span>
