Graph the line using the slope and y-intercept, or two points.
Slope:
−1/3
y-intercept:
(0, 5)
x y
0 5
15 0
Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!
p.s if you want to know how to use another method to solve these problems ( Substition) , just let me know in a comentary down here
Answer:
m ≥ 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the cost is represented by c = 0.12m, the domain should be a positive number, this is because number of minutes can't be written in negative. Therefore, the most reasonable number for the domain would be the set of positive whole numbers which means, m≥0.
Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x-4)=6x-6
2x-8=6x-6
2x-6x-8=-6
-4x-8=-6
-4x=-6+8
-4x=2
x=2/-4
simplify
x=-1/2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are a total of three buckets and only one can be chosen at a time, this would mean that the probability of a ball being placed in a bucket is 1/3. Since each ball has the same probability of being placed into any bucket regardless of the where the previous ball landed, it means that each ball has the same 1/3 probability of a bucket. In order to find the probability that all three land in the same bucket, we need to multiply this probability together for each one of the balls like so...

Finally, we see that the probability of all three balls landing in the same bucket is
