Step-by-step explanation:

gradient \:  =  \:  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

y2 = y , x2 = 5

y1 = 2 , x1 = 3

- 2 \:  =  \:  \frac{y - 2}{5 - 3}

-4 = y-2 ==> y = -2

Answer:

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

For a line containing the points (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2), the gradient/slope is equal to (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1).

Therefore for a line with gradient -2 and points (3,2) and (5,y), we can say:

-2=(y-2)/(5-3)

-2(2)=y-2

y=-4+2

y=-2

You buy x bottles of soda for $1.50 using a gift card that you got as a reward for getting good grades
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

0\leq x \leq 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is  f(x)=15-1.50x  where x is the number of bottles of soda.

The domain means the set of "allowed" x values.

Also, f(x) means the amount of money left, which cannot be less than 0. So we put 0 into f(x) and solve for x:

f(x)=15-1.5x\\0=15-1.5x\\1.5x=15\\x=\frac{15}{1.50}\\x=10

This means the highest number of bottles you can buy is 10. So the domain is anything from 0 to 10. <em>You can buy 0 until highest 10 bottles. Hence the domain is </em>

0\leq x \leq 10
