Slope: Take two points from the graph, and do y-y, over x-x.
for ex. (1,2) and (2,4) do 4-2 over 2-1. your slope is 2/1= 2
y-intercept: find the one point on the graph that is exactly on the y-axis.
for ex. (4,0)= your y-intercept is 4
Answer:
x = -62.5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = kx
-4 = k(25)
k = -4/25
y = (-4/25)x
10 = (-4/25)x
x = 10 × 25/-4
x = -62.5

Let the base of the ladder be x ft and the extension be y ft.
"when fully extended, a ladder is 28 feet in length."
means: x+y=28
"<span>the extension is 4 feet shorter than the base</span>"
means: y=x-4, that is x-y = 4, (taking y to the side of x, and -4 to the other side of x and y)
thus, we have the system of equations:
1) x+y= 28
2) x-y=4
adding the 2 equations, we have:
(x+y)+(x-y)=28+4
2x=32
x=32/2=16
x+y=28, so 16+y=28, thus y=12
Answer: Base: 16, Extension 12
Answer
8(40-y) + 6y =300
320 - 8y + 6y =300
-2y=-20
y=10
This leaves x to be 30.
You should spend 30 minutes on machine 1 and 10 minutes on machine 2.
