Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(10,2)...x1 = 10 and y1 = 2
(3,5)...x2 = 3 and y2 = 5
now we sub
slope = (5 - 2) / (3 - 10) = 3/-7 = -3/7 <==
Let x= bread rolls and y = fruit muffins
X+Y=84
and
X-18=(5/6)Y
system of equations, substitute Y because we want X
X-18=(5/6)(84-X)
X-18=70-(5/6)X
(11/6)X=88
X=48 rolls
Find the slope:
(-19 - 11) / (-8 - 2) = (-30/-10) = 3
Find the y intercept:
y = mx + b
11 = 3(2) + b
b= 5
So equation is:
y = 3x + 5
Answer: 29 and 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Since one number is 5 more than another
53-5 = 48
Then we divide that by two to get the value of one of the two numbers
48/2= 24
In order to get the number which is 5 more than the other, we add 5
24+5= 29
So the two numbers would be 29 and 24.
Check:
29+24= 53
