The second Establishment Offers the best deal
Answer:
1/250
Step-by-step explanation:
1000/4 simplifies to 1/250
All you had to do was simplify it
Y = 2/3x
it's the best answer
Make an equation system based on the problem
eg. a is the first number and b is the seond number
An equation for "<span>The sum of two numbers is 53" is
</span>⇒ a + b = 53
An equation for "<span>twice the first number minus three times the second number is 26"
</span>⇒ 2a - 3b = 26
<span>
Solve the equations by elimination and subtitution method
Eliminate a to find the value of b
a + b = 53 (multiplied by 2)
2a - 3b = 26
--------------------------------------
2a + 2b = 106
2a - 3b = 26
------------------- - (substract)
5b = 80
b = 80/5
b = 16
Subtitute the value of b to one of the equations
a + b = 53
a + 16 = 53
a = 53 - 16
a = 37
The numbers are 16 and 37</span>
<h3>Answer: Choice B) </h3><h3>-6x - 2y = 12</h3>
===============================================
Explanation:
The x intercept is (-2,0) which is where the graph crosses the x axis.
The y intercept is (0,-6) which is where the graph crosses the y axis.
-----
Find the slope of the line through those two points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-6-0)/(0-(-2))
m = (-6-0)/(0+2)
m = -6/2
m = -3
-----
The y intercept (0,-6) leads to b = -6
Both m = -3 and b = -6 plug into y = mx+b to get
y = mx+b
y = -3x+(-6)
y = -3x-6
-----
Now add 3x to both sides
y = -3x-6
y+3x = -3x-6+3x
3x+y = -6
-----
Lastly, multiply both sides by -2 so that the "-6" on the right hand side turns into "12" (each answer choice has 12 on the right hand side)
3x+y = -6
-2(3x+y) = -2(-6)
-2(3x)-2(y) = 12
-6x-2y = 12
which is what choice B shows.
