For starters, create an equation to show David's earnings. We can do this using Danielle's as a basis, which is set up as y=(# of hours)x+(bonus). This gives us y=12x+80. Now, as we need both their ys to be equal, we just set both equations equal to each other, making 15x+50=12x+80. Now, we solve for x, starting with 15x+50=12x+80, subtracting 12x from both sides to get 3x+50=80, subtracting 50 from both sides to get 3x=30, and dividing three from both sides to get x=10. To check, we just plug in our answer to both equations and see if the ys match up. With Danielle's equation, we get y=15(10)+50=150+50=200 and with David's equation, we get y=12(10)+80=120+80=200, proving that our answer is correct.
Answer:
y=2x+10
Step-by-step explanation:
In line equations its helpful to write your line in the form y = ax + b. This helps because a is always the gadient of the line and b is always the y intercept.
In this case it is y=2x+3
All parallel lines have the same gradient. The gradient of this line = 2.
If the line crosses the x axis at x=-5, then when x =-5 y = 0.
If you put all this in the form y =ax + b you get 0 = 2(-5) +b
So all you need to do to find b is rearrange. b = 10.
Therefore your line has gradient 2 and y intercept 10.
y = 2x + 10
1hr 6min left because all you have to do is keep subtracting
Answer:
2/9 boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
6 / 1 / 3 = 4 / b
Cross multiply the two
6b = 4/3
Multiply 1/6 on each side
B = 4 /18
It can be reduced to 2/9.
