4x-2y=8 ==> y=2x-4 (to better show you what I mean)
2 lines are parallel if they have the same slope (m the coefficient of x).
So y=mx + b // y =2x-4 means m=2 & y=mx + b, becomes y=2x + b.
Moreover they are telling us that this function passes by (-2,1), where -2 represents x & 1, represents y. To calculate b , replace x & y by their values:
y=2x+b ==> 1 = 2(- 2) + b==> 1 = -4 + b ==> b= 5. Finally the equation is
y=-2x+5
Answer:
441/100
Step-by-step explanation:
To turn a decimal into a fraction we need to multiply it by 100
4.41*100=441
Now we need to divide it by 100
441/100
441 and 100 dont share any common multiplies besides 1, so we cant simplify the fraction.
For this case we propose a system of equations:
x: Let the variable representing the quantity of Granny Smith apples
y: Let the variable representing the number of Gala apples
According to the statement we have:
From the first equation we have to:
replacing in the second equation:
So, Carl bought 7 Gala apples
On the other hand:
So, Carl bought 12 Granny Smith apples
Answer:
Carl bought 7 Gala apples and 12 Granny Smith apples
It represents the distance diagonally between two opposite corners of a Television. (i.e. the distance between the bottom-left corner and the top-right corner)
