Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I’m assuming that the equation is to be written in slope intercept form (y=mx+b), so for this, you want to find the slope and y-intercept. To find the slope, use the equation in picture 1.
0 - 5 = -5
1 - 5 = -4
-5 / -4 = 1.25
So m, or the slope, is equal to 1.25.
To find the y-intercept, make a table like the second picture. Choose one of the ordered pairs as the given. I used 1,0.
0,?
1,0
Now find the change in x, which in this case, is 1. Then set up something like picture three.
1.25/1 = ?/1
?=1.25
Now backtrack to get:
0, -1.25
1, 0
Now we know what is y when x is 0, we know the y intercept and can make the equation:
y = 1.25x - 1.25

First, we calculate the area of one paver. This is:
12 x 12 = 144 square feet
Now, the number of pavers required may be determined by dividing the total surface area to be covered by the surface area of one paver, as:
number of pavers = 600 / 144
Number of pavers = 4.2
Because 0.2 pavers can not be obtained, 5 pavers are needed to completely cover 600 square feet.
Answer:
x = students
y = adults
Linear Systems of Equations :
x + y = 937
0.75x + 2y = 1,109
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 : eliminate one of the variables
x + y = 937
0.75x + 2y = 1,109
-2(x + y = 937) = -2x - 2y = -1874
-2x - 2y = -1874
0.75x + 2y = 1109
We can eliminate y since -2y + 2y = 0
Step 2: Find x number of students.
-2x = -1874
+0.75x = 1109
____________
-1.25x = -765
____________ = 612 students attended
-1.25
937 - 612 = 325 adults
Check Answer :
612 x 0.75 = $459
325 x 2 = $650
$650 + $459 = $1,109
Therefore, there will be 612 students attending and 325 adults.
