Amount of dresses you could make with material and how many marbles can fit into a container.
We start by finding the intercept of the line: what does y equal when x=0? and what does x equal when y=0?
• intercept in x
y = 12 + 2x
0 = 12 + 2x
-12 = 2x
-6 = x
• intercept in y
y = 12 + 2x
y = 12 + 2(0)
y = 12 + 0
y = 12
Now we find three more points giving y a value and finding x
y = 12 + 2x
2 = 12 + 2x
2-12 = 2x
-10 = 2x
-5 = x
y = 12 + 2x
6 = 12 + 2x
6 - 12 = 2x
-6 = 2x
-3 = x
y = 12 + 2x
14 = 12 + 2x
14 - 12 = 2x
2 = 2x
1 = x
Notice how I gave y even numbers as values since we would have to divide with 2 at the end.
Sol. {(-6,0)(0,12)(-5,2)(-3,6)(1,14)}
Remember you said the scale shows you 10% heavier.
So that's an increase of 10%
So value = 10% + 100% = 110%
So scale would show 110% of 82
110% of 82
= (110/100) * 82
= 1.1 * 82
= 90.2
OR
We can simply find 10% of 82 and add it to the original 82.
10% of 82
(10/100) * 82
0.1 * 82 = 8.2
8.2 + 82 = 90.2 Same answer as before.
So scale shows 90.2 kg.
A+5=5a+5 Subtract a from each side
5=5a+5 Subtract 5 from each side
0=5a Divide each side by the number before the variable to get it alone.
