1/4 pound x 5 days= 1 1/4 pounds (1.25)
Since the two equations equal y, set them equal to each other.
x-1=-2x+5
From there, solve for x.
First get x on one side, by using the addition property of equality.
x-1=-2x+5
3x-1=5
Isolate x by adding 1.
3x=6
Lastly get x all by itself by dividing each side by 3.
x=2
You can now substitute your x-value, 2, into one of the equations (or both, if you wish; either one will result in the same answer.)
y=x-1
y=2-1
y=1
OR
y=-2x+5
y=-2(2)+5
y=-4+5
y=1
Final answer:
x=2 and y=1

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeros are the values of x for which y = 0
Quadratic formula
x = [5 ± √(5² – 4·1·6)] / [2·1]
= [5 ± √1] / 2
= [5 ± 1] /2
= 2, 3
sum of zeros = 5
Answer:
y = -x + 2.
or
x + y - 2 = 0 (Standard form).
Step-by-step explanation:
Its slope (m) is -1 and y intercept (c) is at y = 2.
y = mx + c
So it's:
y = -1x + 2
Standard form is:
x + y - 2 = 0.
I'm not sure what you mean by General Form.
