Answer:
starting point is -9
y = 8x + -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Each shirt cost $8.50. Each pants cost $12.50.
I estimated to 45 then divided 21 and got about 2.1
So if you want to fit the y-intercepts or "b", on the y-axis you should go by 25's [0, 25, 50, 75, 100...]
If the x-axis <u>does not have to</u> follow the same pattern (25's), you should go by 5's [0, 5, 10, 15, 20...]
y = 7x + 50
y = 2x + 175
First I would plot the y-intercepts for each equation, then plot a few points with x = 5, 10, 15 Then draw a straight line.
The point where the two lines meet/cross paths is your solution. It should be (25, 225) The x-axis is the number of miles, and the y-axis is the total cost. So Truck driver A and B would arrive/be at the same place/meet in 25 miles at the same cost of $225
You can read 100 pages in 5 hours.
40 pages in 2 hours. We need to get the unit rate. In this case, we need to get the number of pages read in 1 hour.
40 pages ÷ 2 hours = 20 pages per hour.
20 pages per hours * 5 hours = 100 pages.
