Answer:

-5k+7p+1 I THINK

Step-by-step explanation

destribute the negative

(-3k + p – 1) – (2k – 6p – 2)

-2k+6p+2

add to the (-3k + p – 1) to simplify

-5k+7p+1

Reika [66]

Answer:

22 pigs and 3 ducks

Step-by-step explanation:

22 pigs would make 88 legs and 3 ducks will make 6 legs so u add that together and you get 94 legs (smile) ik i'm smart lol

Please answer this question for points

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, how steep the line is.

"b" is the y-intercept, where to graph hits the y-axis.

Check the scale for this grid. Since there are "1" written on the first box after the middle, <u>one square = one unit</u>.

To find "m", use $m = \frac{rise}{run}$ between the two dotted points on the graph. The first point is always on the left.

<u>"Rise" means how many squares above</u> the first point the second point is.

Since the second point is below the first point, the number is negative.

<u>"Run" means how many squares to the right</u> the second point is.

$m = \frac{rise}{run}$

$m = \frac{-2}{1}$

$m = -2$

To find "b", look at where the graph it touching the y-axis.

The y-axis is the vertical line (going from top to bottom).

Count the number of squares from the grid's middle to the graph line.

There are 3 squares.

Since the graph touches below the origin, this is a negative number.

b = -3

In the boxes, you put negative two (-2) and negative three (-3).

* Usually we would simplify the equation to y = -2x - 3.

Find an equation for the line below. Thanks !

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{y=\frac{1}{4}x + \frac{13}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation to this line, we need to note that we see two points on this graph. Using these two points, we can use them to find the slope of the graph and use one to find the y-intercept.

We know that the slope of a line is defined by $\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}$ (change in y / change in x). Therefore, we can use our two points that we know - (-5, 2) and (3, 4) to find the slope.

The change in y is $4 - 2 = 2$ , and the change in x is $3 - (-5) = 3+5= 8$ . Therefore, our slope is $\frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{4}$ .

Now that we know our slope, our equation in slope-intercept form looks something like this.

$y = \frac{1}{4}x + b$

However, we still have b to solve for. We can solve for this by substituting a point we already know into the equation. Let's substitute (3, 4) inside.

$4 = \frac{1}{4} \cdot 3+b$
$4 = \frac{3}{4} + b$
$b = \frac{16}{4}- \frac{3}{4}$
$b = \frac{13}{4}$

So now we know that the y-intercept is $\frac{13}{4}$ . Plugging that into our equation finishes it off, leaving our final equation to be $y = \frac{1}{4}x + \frac{13}{4}$ .

Hope this helped!

(Essential Question) How do you create equations and use them to solve problems?

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

equations are created to solve for a certain variable. you can use the data given in the word problem to formulate a valid equation that incorporates all important components of the word problem. the variable can be represented as any letter (most commonly x or y) to find a value that is inconsistent or unknown. this is helpful to find a certain thing in the problem, such as the amount of hours needed to earn a certain amount of money.
