First, notice that this equation is written in slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form where the multiplier, m, or the coefficient of the ex term represents the slope of the line and the b or the constant term represents the y-intercept of the line.

I have attached slope-intercept form below.

Notice that below, the b is in place of the 4 in the equation.

So the y-intercept or the b is 4.

For every quarter he spends, Reggie receives 50 food pebbles to feed the fish. Reggie has thrown 350 food pebbles into the fish

deff fn [24]

Answer:

7 quarters are spent for throwing 350 food pebbles in pond.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Reggie receives 50 food pebbles for every quarter he spends.

Number of food pebbles he has = 350

Let the number of quarters spent for 350 pebbles be 'x'.

Now, using proportion and cross multiplication method, we can find 'x'.

1 quarter is equivalent to 50 pebbles thrown in pond.

So, 'x' quarters is equivalent to 350 pebbles thrown in pond.

$\frac{1}{50}=\frac{x}{350}\\\\Cross\ multiplying\\\\50x=350\\\\x=\frac{350}{50}\\\\x=7$

So, 7 quarters are spent for throwing 350 food pebbles in pond.

Suppose that each semester at a particular community college Manuel has to pay $1478 in tuition and $121 in fees.

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be time, in semesters, remaining before Manuel graduates. We find that Manuel's expenses are:

$1478/semester in tuition, and

$121/semester in fees

1. x semesters remaining: fees

Remaining cost for fees, y, is the product of the fee times the number of semesters, x:

y =($121/semester)*x

y = ($121)*x

2. x semesters remaining: tuition

Remaining cost, y, is the product of the tuition (times the number of semesters, x.

y = ($1478/semester)*x + ($121/semester)*x

y = ($1599)*x

3. x semesters remaining: tuition and fees

Remaining cost, y, is the sum of the products of the tuition (times the number of semesters, and the fees (tix.

y = ($1478/semester)*x + ($121/semester)*x

y = ($1599)*x

What value of "a" makes the system 3x-y=17 and ax+y=-7 have no solution?

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

y=-7-ax

3x-(-7-ax)=17

3x+7+ax=17

3x+ax=10

x(3+a)=10

x=10,3+a=10 a=10-3 a=7
