Answer:
-2/5
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is rise over run according to my former algebra teacher, but I learned it differently (still correct tho).
The first moves 2 units down so negative 2, and moves 5 units right, so -2/5 since the rise is -2, and run is 5.
The second one moves 2 x-units for every 1 y-unit, so the slope is 2,
We have two points so we can find the gradient using y1-y2/x1-x2
gradient = 21-27/2-8
= 1
we know the form for any linear equation is y = mx + c
we have m and a point so we can substitute in point (2,21) to find c
21 = 1 x 2 + c
c = 19
therefore, the equation is y = x + 19
Answer:
P = $7.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Movie tickets = $8.50
Drink = $4.75
Two friends also bought popcorn
Total spent by the group = $53.75
Given equation:
3(8.50 + 4.75) + 2p = 53.75
Where,
P = cost of one order of popcorn
3(8.50 + 4.75) + 2p = 53.75
25.50 + 14.25 + 2p = 53.75
39.75 + 2p = 53.75
2p = 53.75 - 39.75
2p = 14
p = 14 / 2
p = 7
p = $7.00
