Answer:-4
Step-by-step explanation:
In general when a firm produces nothing it still has to pay for the fixed costs while the variable costs are zero
2x+5y=21, x+y=3
y=3-x
2x+5y=21
2x+5(3-x) =21
2x+15-5x=21
2x-5x+15=21
-3x+15=21
-3x=21-15
-x=6/3
-x=2
x=-2
Rise over run. as time increases the temperature rises. starting at 8am and -2°f.
At 12pm the temperature rose to 4°f.
that's a difference of 4 hours and 6 degrees. for every hour, it rose 1.5 degrees. the slope is 1.5/1
