Let the number of boxes = x


<u>moving company:</u>

Total cost = 150 + 5x


<u>taxi service:</u>

Total cost = 20x


<u>For the moving company to be cheaper:</u>

150 + 5x < 20x

150 < 20x - 5x

150 < 15x

10 < x

x > 10


Answer: Moving company is cheaper when there is more than 10 boxes.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (1,9) and (3,5).
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    y = -2x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

A (1, 9)

B (3, 5)

- Find the slope

 m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

 m = \frac{5 - 9}{3 - 1}

 m = \frac{-4}{2}

        m = - 2

- Find the line equation

        y - y1 = m (x - x1)

        y - 5 = -2(x - 3)

        y - 5 = -2x + 6

        y = -2x + 6 + 5

        y = -2x + 11
