Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step of any problem solution is <em>look at the given information</em>. Here, we are given the equation of a line in (almost) standard form, and we want to match the equation with a graph. We notice that the coefficients of the variables are factors of the constant, so the intercepts are integer values easily found.
We can compare the line's intercepts to those shown on the graphs to choose the correct graph.
<u>x-intercept</u>
The x-intercept is found by setting y=0 and solving for x:
-3x +5(0) = -15
x = -15/-3 = 5
Only one graph shows a line with an x-intercept of (5, 0): graph B.
<u>y-intercept</u>
We can confirm graph B by finding the y-intercept. For this, we set x=0 and solve for y.
-3(0) +5y = -15
y = -15/5 = -3
Graph B also has a y-intercept of (0, -3), confirming it is the correct choice.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Part of "look at the given information" is "look at the answer choices." What you look for is <em>what makes one choice different from the others</em>. Here, the lines have x- and y-intercepts of ±3 and ±5. The y-intercepts are the same for graphs A and B, and for graphs C and D.
However, the x-intercepts are different for all of them. This tells you that finding the x-intercept is the fastest way to find the correct graph.
A. Median. That is simply what it is called

Answer:
There were 250 hamburgers sold on Saturday.
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 555 hamburgers
and cheeseburgers on Saturday
→ Assume that the shop sold x hamburgers
∵ The shop sold x hamburgers
∵ There were 55 more cheeseburgers sold than hamburgers
→ That means the number of cheeseburgers is greater than the
number of hamburger by 55
∴ The shop sold x + 55 cheeseburgers
∵ The shop sold 555 burgers
→ Add the two types of burgers and equate the sum by 555
∴ x + x + 55 = 555
∴ 2x + 55 = 555
→ Subtract 55 from both sides
∴ 2x + 55 - 55 = 555 - 55
∴ 2x = 500
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∵ 
= 
∴ x = 250
∵ x represents the number of hamburgers
∴ There were 250 hamburgers sold on Saturday.
