Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of novels
y = number of dictionaries
x = 8y
88x + 208y = 13680
now, using the identity of the first equation in the second equation gives us
88(8y) + 208y = 13680
704y + 208y = 13680
912y = 13680
y = 13680/912 = 15
x = 8y = 8×15 = 120
so, there were 120 novels and 15 dictionaries sold.
Y=mx+b is our base equation
m=slope, so let's find that first:
m= change in y/change in x
So between the points (-1,-2) and (3,4),
The y values, -2 and 4, have a difference of 6. The x values, -1 and 3, have a difference of 4. This makes our slope 6/4 (or 3/2 simplified)
Now our equation is
Y=3/2x + b
We still need to find b
To find b, we can substitute a point given to us. Let's use (3,4) just to avoid negatives.
4=3/2(3) + b
Multiply
4=9/2 + b
Subtract 9/2 from both sides
-1/2=b
Now let's put it all back together!
Y=3/2x-1/2 Is the answer.
I hope this Helps!
well the answer is 107.8823529411764705 (repeating decimal)
Answer: 3x + 5y = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, you start off by moving the d over to the other side
<u>c - d = 2m </u>
then you can divide everything by 2 , this will get the m by itself
Therefore, your answer is
<u>c - d / 2 = m </u>
