To find the slope, you find the change in y-values over the change in x-values.
Your first point is: (5,-3)
Your second point is (8, -5)
Your x-values are: 5 and 8
Your y-values are -3 and -5
The equation to find slope is: slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
- The 2s and 1s indicate which point the values belong to, it makes sure that you align the right x-value with its correct y-value. It doesn't matter which point you assign as 1 or 2, as long as the values match
- So, x-value 5 will match with y-value -3, and x-value 8 will match with y-value -5
Now you plug in out values :
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope = (-5-(-3))/(8-5)
slope = (-2)/(3)
slope = -2/3
Answer: $628
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. -3
2. 7
3. -2
4. 3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. idk
2. 3.2 move 3b over to get 3.2-3b-4.7=-3.3 move 4.7 over to get
3.2b-3b=4.7-3.3 now 3.2b-3b=.2b and 4.7-3.3=1.4 .2b/.2=b 1.4/.2=7 so b=7
3. 4.6y-y+4=y-1.2 now switch the 4 and the y to read 4.6y-2y=-4-1.2
2.6y=-5.2 divide both sides by 2.6 to get y=-2
4. 7.5c-2.5c+8=-7 move 8 to other side to get 7.5c-2.5c=-8-7
5c=-15 divide both sides by 5 getting c=3
This is simple:
divide 15 by 5 = 3 then divide .6 by 5 = 0.12
Add them together: 3.12 is your answer.
Answer:
160 cups of lemonade and 80 packages of cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
l = lemonade
c = cookies
l+1.5c=280
2c=l
Substitute.
3.5c=280
Simplify.
c=80
Substitute into the second equation.
l=160.
Plug it back into the equations to check.
