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
First we find the slope by using the slope formula : (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(0,7)....x1 = 0 and y1 = 7
(8,-2)...x2 = 8 and y2 = -2
now sub...pay attention to ur signs
slope = (-2 - 7) / (8 - 0) = -9/8
now we use y = mx + b
slope(m) = -9/8
u can use either of ur points...(0,7)...x = 0 and y = 7
now sub into ur formula and find b, the y int
7 = -9/8(0) + b
7 = b
so ur equation is : y = -9/8x + 7 <==
