Answer:

It's 2, 1, and y = 2x + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can see the rise is 2 and the run is 1, making the slope = 2, and the y-intercept is 1 because that is where it crosses the y axis. Once you have the slope and y intercept, you can put it in a function, with the form being y=2x+1, the slope being the number before the x and the y-int value being after the x.

Why must bowhunters use broadhead points when hunting big game?
Stolb23 [73]
<span>Bowhunters must use broadhead points when hunting big game to ensure that they will be able to kill their game at the least time possible. The broadhead points causes massive blood loss to the prey as it cut through the vital organs and blood vessels of the animal.  

There are states that require a certain measurement of the broadhead point arrows. Theses arrows must be solidly built and must always be razor sharp to ensure quick penetration to the animals thick skin and layers of tissues. </span>

Help please with algebra problem

Number of weekend minutes used: x
Number of weekday minutes used: y

This month Nick was billed for 643 minutes:
(1) x+y=643

The charge for these minutes was $35.44
Telephone company charges $0.04 per minute for weekend calls (x)
and $0.08 per minute for calls made on weekdays (y)
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

We have a system of 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) x+y=643
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44

Using the method of substitution
Isolating x from the first equation:
(1) x+y-y=643-y
(3) x=643-y

Replacing x by 643-y in the second equation
(2) 0.04x+0.08y=35.44
0.04(643-y)+0.08y=35.44
25.72-0.04y+0.08y=35.44
0.04y+25.72=35.44

Solving for y:
0.04y+25.72-25.72=35.44-25.72
0.04y=9.72

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.04:
0.04y/0.04=9.72/0.04
y=243

Replacing y by 243 in the equation (3)
(3) x=643-y
x=643-243
x=400


Answers:
The number of weekends minutes used was 400
The number of weekdays minutes used was 243
