You do 250 x 1.25, then you get 312.5, then you subtract 250 by 312.5, and get -62.5, so, 250 - 62.5 = 187.05, I hope this helps!

Find the y-intercept from the line passing through (1, 3) and having slope m=2.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The y intercept is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2x+b

Substitute the point into the equation and solve for y

3 = 2(1)+b

3 =2+b

1 = b

The y intercept is 1

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!
AleksandrR [38]

Ok so first we find the equation that equals one variable.


2y = -x + 9

3x - 6y = -15


We solve for y.


2y = -x + 9

y = -x/2 + 9/2


Then we plug in this y value into the other equation to keep only one variable so we can solve for it.


3x - 6y = -15

3(-x + 9/2) - 6y = -15

-3x + 27/2 - 6y = -15

-9y + 27/2 = -15

-9y = 3/2

-y = 3/18

y = -3/18


Then we plug in this numerical y-value into the first equation which we found out by solving an equation for y.


y = -x/2 + 9/2

-3/18 = -x/2 + 9/2

-84/18 = -x/2

-x = 9 1/3

x = -28/3


Your answer would be (-28/3, -3/18)


Hope this helps!
