If I could give you an answer, I would. But I'm terrible at Math so, sorry
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
- slope: cost per mile
- y-intercept: fixed base cost
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. The problem statement tells you that x is the number of miles driven, and y is the rental cost.
When the number of miles driven is zero, the rental cost is ...
y = 2.25×0 +70
y = 70
The cost of renting the truck is $70 when it isn't driven anywhere. The y-intercept ($70) is the basic, fixed cost of truck rental.
__
If x=1 (1 mile driven), then 2.25 is added to the cost of the truck rental. The slope (2.25) is the cost per mile driven. (That mileage cost is added to the basic rental cost.)
Answer: One plain roll is 4 dollars and one shiny roll is 6 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
lets start by saying
rolls of plain wrapping paper = x
rolls of shiny wrapping paper = y
Kathryn sold 4 plain rolls and 3 shiny rolls for 34 dollars.
4x+3y=34
Eugene sold 4 plain rolls and 2 shiny rolls for 28 dollars
4x+2y=28
Both equations will look like this.
4x+3y=34
-1(4x+2y)=(28)-1
we can multiply the second equation by -1 to get y alone. (doesn't matter which equation). Once you do that, the positive 4x and the negative 4x cancel out, 3y-2y=1y and 34-28=6. you are left with
1y=6 so one shiny roll is 6 dollars.
now use that price to find the cost of the plain roll.
lets use Kathryn's equation
4x + 3(6)=34
4x + 18= 34
-18 -18
4x=16. Divide by 4 to find cost of one plain roll.
16÷4=4. One plain roll costs 4 dollars.
Lets check. Using Kathryn's equation,
4(4) + 3(6)=34
16+18=34
34=34. We are right.
