Answer:
you will multiply the new price plus the original price
Y-intercept = -13
x-intercept = 2.6 or 2 3/5
-13 is the y-intercept. In the equation, y=mx+b, b is the y-intercept. Looking at the equation, y=5x-13, we can see that -13 is in the place of b, therefore -13 is the y-intercept.
() is the x-intercept. To find the x-intercept, you need to replace values into the equation. Since the coordinates for the x-intercept consist of y being 0, you must replace y in the equation. with 0.
0=5x-13
Get rid of the -13 by adding it onto both sides. -13 is negative and the opposite of a negative is positive, thus making you add to get rid of -13.
0=5x-13
+13 +13
13=5x
Now you divide 5 from both sides to get rid of 5. The opposite of multiplication is division, so you must divide the 5 from 5x to isolate the x.
13/5=5x/5
2.6 or 2 3/5=x
Therefore the coordinates (2.6,0) represent the x-intercept, or just 2.6.
I hope this helped.
The answer to the question
Answer:
23/20 or 1 and 3/20
Step-by-step explanation:
Make sure they have the same common denominator. For 5 and 4, 20 would be the Least Common Denominator.
so 2/5=8/20 and 3/4=15/20
Add 8+15 and you get 23 so 23/20 you can leave it so or switch it to a mixed number 1 3/20
