Water = 5 bottles * $0.90 = $4.50
meat = 8 pounds * x amount.
Total = water + meat prices = $26.90
26.90 = $4.50 + 8x
22.40 = 8x
2.8 = x
The price per pound of meat is $2.80.
Answer:
y=2/7x
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept,
y=2/7x+0
y=2/7x
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a triangle is
baseline × height / 2
in our case
baseline × 5 / 2 = 20 in²
baseline × 5 = 40
baseline = 8 in
The "x-intercept" occurs when y=0, because it is at this point that the equation touches the x axis. So if you plug in y=0 into the equation you can solve for the x coordinate.
4x-2(0)-8=0
4x-8=0
4x=8
x=2
So the x-intercept is the point (2,0)
Set each of the binomials equal to zero and solve for x. The two values will be the zeros of the equation:
(x-4) = 0 (x+11) = 0
x-4 = 0 x + 11 = 0
x = 4 x = -11
The zeros of the equation are -11 and 4
