Answer:
2600 into the account earning 1% interest
2400 into the account earning 6% interest
Step-by-step explanation:
let x= account earning 1% interest
y= account earning 6% interest
we can write
x+y=5000 (equation 1)
.01x+.06y=170 (equation 2)
mulitply equation 1 by .01
.01x+.01y=50
subtract this from equation 2
(.01x+.06y)-(.01x+.01y)= 170-50
.05y= 120
y= 2400
Plug in y= 2400 into equation 1
x+2400=5000
x=2600
Is it meaning the cereal is 25% off? If so then your answer would be $2.44
If x=2, the line is just a straight, vertical line intersecting the x-axis at 2.
Slope formula is
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
A. m = (5 - 0)/(-2 + 2)
m = (5)/(0)
m = error
B. m = (-2 - 0)/(0 + 2)
m = (-2)/(2)
m = -1
C. m = (2 - 0)/(2 - 0)
m = (2)/(2)
m = 1
D. m = (0 - 0)/(2 - 3)
m = (0)/(-1)
m = 0
the undefined slope would be the one that came out as error, so A
