The slope (m) of the line graphed is -4/2, because the line goes down 4 (-4) and over 2 (+2), which is change in y over change in x
m = -4/2 = -2
the y-intercept (b) of the line = -1, because the line crosses the vertical line at x=0 at y=-1
now for the equation:
y = mx + b
y = -2x + -1 = -2x - 1
f(x) = -2x-1
the last answer is correct
Answer:
Vanilla = 10 sundaes
Step-by-step explanation:
Total sundaes = 25
1/5 of the sundaes are mint ice cream
Mint ice cream = 1/5 of 25
= 1/5 * 25
= 25/5
= 5
Sundaes remaining = total sundaes - sundaes for mint ice cream
= 25 - 5
= 20 sundaes
Sundaes remaining = 20 sundaes
1/2 of the remaining sundaes are chocolate
= 1/2 of 20
= 1/2 * 20
= 20/2
= 10
Chocolate ice cream = 10
The rest will be vanilla
Sundaes remaining = 20 - 10
= 10 sundaes
Vanilla = 10 sundaes
3.75pounds is the answer as 10/8=1.25 and 1.25*3=3.75
