I hope this helps. Have a good day.
To find the X value of the solution, you would set the two equations equal to each other bu substitution:
if <span>y = -2x + 5 and y = 3x - 2,
</span>-2x + 5 must be equal to 3x - 2
solve for x... you should get 7/5
then, plug that into one of the original equations as X and you would get the Y value, 11/5
This point, (7/5,11/5) is where the two lines cross
Answer: 55
Step-By-Step Explanation:
Answer:
a. The slope is 5/4
b. The equation in slope and intercept form is y = 5/4·x + 12
c. The base cost of making a fruit juice is $12
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that gives the cost in dollars of making your own fruit juice is given as follows;
y - 2 = 5/4·(x + 8)
a. The slope = The coefficient of x = 5/4
The slope = 5/4
b. The equation can be presented in slope and intercept form, y = m·x + c, as follows;
y - 2 = 5/4·(x + 8)
y = 5/4·x + 10 + 2
y = 5/4·x + 12
c. The base cost of making a fruit juice = The cost added to any quantity of fruit, x made = The y-intercept, c = 12
The base cost of making a fruit juice = $12.
