Answer:
25% of the sweets in the jar are jelly beans.
Let x be the amount he invests at 6%
1280 = 0.06x + 0.07(20000 - x)
1280 = 0.06x + 1400 - 0.07x
1280 - 1400 = -0.01x
-120 / -0.01 = x
x = 12000
Therefore, he invests $12,000 at 6% and $8,000 at 7%
Answer:
x-intercept (-3,0); y-intercept (0,12)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x-intercept --> y should equal 0
8x-2(0)=-24 substitute
8x=-24 divide
x=-3 (-3,0)
To find they-intercept --> x should equal 0
8(0)-2y=-24 substitute
-2y=-24 divide
y=12 (0,12)
