Answer:
I have no clue. I think it is -0.40 if I remember correctly.
Answer:
3600 miles on 240 gal
Step-by-step explanation:
80 gal can go 1200
160 gal can go 2400
240 gal can go 3600
Given:
Tom's earnings: x
Jan's earnings: 2x - 150
Total earnings: 1380
x + 2x - 150 = 1380
3x = 1380 + 150
3x = 1530
3x/3 = 1530/3
x = 510
Tom's earnings: x = 510
Jan's earnings: 2x - 150 = 2(510) - 150 = 1,020 - 150 = 870
total earnings: 1,380
510 + 870 = 1,380
1,380 = 1,380
Equation of a line passing through point (x1, y1) with slope m is given by y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = -1/2(x - 6)
2(y - 2) = -(x - 6)
2y - 4 = -x + 6
x + 2y = 6 + 4
x + 2y = 10
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) if the number of drill sold is plotted on the horizontal or x axis and the price of each drill sold is plotted on the vertical or y axis, the slope would be
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
= (40 - 50)/(3000 - 2000)
Slope, m = - 0.01
b)For every additional drill sold, the price per drill decreases by 0.01 cent
c) The equation of a straight line modelled in the slope intercept form is expressed as
y = mx + c
Where
m represents slope
c represents the y intercept
To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = - 0.01, x = 2000, y = 50 into y = mx + c. It becomes
50 = - 0.01 × 2000 + c
50 = - 20 + c
c = 50 + 20 = 70
The equation modelling the situation is
y = - 0.01x + 70
Therefore, if the trend continues, the number of drills that would be sold for $43 is
43 = - 0.01x + 70
0.01x = 70 - 43 = 27
x = 27/0.01
x = 2700
2700 drills would be sold
