Answer:
A because (0,-6) is the y-intercept so you start at the point you know. Then because slope is a rise over run fraction the slope can also be written as 2/1 which is rise 2 over 1.
Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the unknows with n and d.
Then n+d = 44 (# of coins)
and
$0.05n + $0.10d = $3.10 (value of coins)
Solving the first equation for n, we get n = 44-d. Subst. 44-d for n in the 2nd equation:
0.05(44-d) + 0.10d = 3.10
Then 2.20 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 3.10, or
2.20 + 0.05d = 3.10, or 0.05d = 0.90. Solving for d,
0.90
d = -------- = 18
0.05
There are 18 dimes and 44-18 nickels. How many nickels is that? ;)
Hello! :)
To solve your equation, we will first simplify both sides of the equation
-7 = -1 + x/3
-7 = -1 + 1/3x
-7 = 1/3x - 1
Next, we will flip the equation
1/3x - 1 = -7
Third, we will add 1 to both sides
1/3x - 1 + 1 = -7 + 1
1/3x = -6
Last, we will Multiply both sides by 3
3 * (1/3x) = (3) * (-6)
x = -18 (ANSWER)
That means -18 is you answer

This is a linear function, of the kind y = mx + b
where x is the number of visit, b is the weight when x = 0, and m is the predicted change of weight for every visit.
m = - 4 ounces / visit, which must be converted to pounds (the negative sign indicates that the change is a decrease)
1 lb = 16 ounces = 4 ounces = 0.25 lb
Then m = - 0.25 lb / visit.
Now, for x = 1, y = 126 => 126 = - 0.25(1) + b => b = 126 + 0.25 = 126.25
Then the function is y = 126.25 - 0.25x
Now round to the nearest tenth:
y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer: y = 126.3 - 0.3x
