First, write it as an equation
2.50+3x=5.05
Next, subtract 2.50 from both sides
2.50-2.50+3x=5.05-2.50
3x=2.55
Divide 3 on both sides
3x/3=2.55/3
x=0.85
The cost of a bag of chips is 0.85
hope i helped :D
Answer:
y=3/2(x) -1, or y = 1.5x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation in slope-intercept form, you have to determine the y-intercept for the line. Since you have the slope and at least one ordered pair, you can find this by substituting the points and slope into this formula:
y=mx+b.
For this particular line, you would write:
-8 = 3/2(-6)+b
-8 = -18/2 + b
-8 = -9 + b
add 9 to both sides to isolate the b
-1 = b.
Now that you have the answer for b (-1), you can write the equation as:
y=3/2(x) -1
the answer to your question is A.
