Answer:

3x + 2y = 16

x = 2 , y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that George bought x quarts at $3.00 per quart & y quarts at $2.00 per quart and he bought 7 quarts for $16.00

Considering the total cost

3x + 2y = 16

For the cost of each

x + y = 7

solving the 2 equations simultaneously be substitution

x = 7 - y

3(7 - y) + 2y = 16

21 - 3y + 2y = 16

-3y + 2y = 16 - 21

-y = - 5

Divide both sides by -1

y = 5

x = 7 -y

x = 7 - 5

= 2

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

  • {(0,1),(1,2),(2,3),(3,4)}
  • {(0,4),(1,6),(3,10),(5,14)}

Step-by-step explanation:

When x-differences are the same, y-differences will be the same for a linear function. When they are not the same, they will be proportional for a linear function.

{(0,1),(1,2),(2,3),(3,4)} - x-differences are all the same; y-differences are all 1 (linear, y=x+1)

{(0,0),(1,1),(2,4),(3,9)} - x-differences are all the same; y-differences increase (this is a quadratic function: y=x^2)

{(1,1),(2,8),(3,27),(4,64)} - x-differences are all the same; y-differences increase (this is a cubic function: y=x^3)

{(0,4),(1,6),(3,10),(5,14)} - x-differences are 1, 2, 2; y-differences are 2, 4, 4, so are proportional to (double) the x-differences (linear; y=2x+4)

Find the EQUATION of the line with exact numbers
Daniel [21]
You need to know where the line crosses the y axis (vertical) - AKA the y intercept, and the slope of the line.
The y intercept is 5. The slope is -1/3 because every time the line goes down one square, it also goes right three squares.
Equation:
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 1/3x + 5
Another way to write the same thing
y = x/3 + 5
Both correct!
