Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B. (-1, 0)
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>
- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
- Solving systems of equations using graphing
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the solution set of a systems of equations, the point where the 2 lines intersect would show the solution for the systems.
According to the graph given, both lines intersect each other at x = -1.
Therefore, our answer is B.
Cost of apples, y, varies directly with pounds
of apples purchased, x.
y = kx
k is constant of proportion
Four pounds of apples cost $5
5 = 4k
k = 5/4 = 1.25
10 = 8k
k = 10/8 = 1.25
As it should be, k is a constant equal to 1.25
y = 6(1.25) = $7.50 for 6 pounds of apples
