Judging by your graph, it should be 30 :)
Use the equation to find the slope: m=y2-y1/x2-x1 and plug in each of the y coordinates into the numerator and each of the x coordinates in the denominator
m=-2-3/4-8
-5/-4
m=5/4
Plug in the slope and one of the ordered pairs into y=mx+b. I’ll use (8,3)
3=5/4(8)+b
3=10+b
-7=b
Equation: y=5/4x-7
1 cup is equal to 8 oz, so
3 cups x 8 = 24 oz.
you'll do the same for the two cups
2 x 8 = 16 oz
so adding them all together will be
24 + 6 + 16 + 9 = 55 total oz.
To find the unit rate you do
$1.39/8 oz.=.17
Then, you multiply the unit rate by the ounces
.17 * 14 oz. = $2.43
Let the faculties be X and the number of students be Y.
X/Y = 17/3
3X= 17Y
X=17Y/3
Let that be equation 1
We also know that X+Y = 740. Let it be equation 2
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2
(17Y/3)+Y= 740
20Y/3 = 740
Y=111
Since the total is 740, then X equal 740-111 =629.
The number of faculties is 111 and the number of students is 629.
