i get the concept of slopes and such but i’m not rlly sure how to put a word problem in a graph? can someone please help out?

9514 1404 393
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Read the words down to the point where it says "graph this equation." Then, it's not a word problem anymore—it's a problem of graphing the given equation.
c = 2t +8
The "y-intercept" is the value of "y" when t=0. It is 8. This is the cost of a pizza with 0 toppings.
The slope is the coefficient of t. It is 2. This is the increase in the cost of a pizza when 1 topping is added. The slope is the cost of a topping.
__
Be aware that the grid on this graph shows squares, but the vertical dimension of the square is $2 while the horizontal dimension is 1 topping. That is, a line with a slope of 2 will lie on the diagonal of a grid square.

<em>Additional comment</em>
We call the point where the graph crosses the vertical axis the "y-intercept." It is called that here, even though "y" is not in the equation or on the graph anywhere. It should rightfully be called the "c-intercept", since the vertical axis shows the value of c, the cost of the pizza.

First off, let's convert the percentages to decimal format, so our 77% turns to 77/100 or 0.77, and our 55% turns to 55/100 or 0.55 and so on
now, the sum of both salines, must add up to the 77% mixture, let's say is "y"
so, 11 + 4 = y, and whatever the concentration level is, must also sum up to the mixture's concentration of 77%
anyway thus
solve for "x"
