Answer:

m=7/36

Step-by-step explanation:

we need two points in order to find the ratio of the change in y and change in x, which is the slope

m=(y-y1)/(x-x1) (you can choose any point as y1 but be careful that you use the corresponding x1 value in the denominator)

m=(11-4)/(17-(-19))

m=7/36

Answer:

40 student 110 adult

this is using desmos

but to smash the equation you can go like basically we have to cancel out each variable to solve for the other

3x + 8y = 1000

x + y < =150

-3(x + y <= 150)

-3x -3y = -450

3x + 8y = 1000

5y = 550

y= 110

3x + 8 y = 1000

-8(x+y<=150) = -8x - 8y <= -1200

-5x = -200

$\frac{ - 5x}{ - 5 } = x$

$\frac{ - 200}{ - 5} = 40$

x= 40

How to solve this substitution

Lena [83]

-5x+4y=11
substitute for x which is 5
(-5)(5)+4y=11

simplify :
4y-25=11

add 25 on both sides
4y-25=11
+25 +25
the 25 cancels out

so it would be 4y=36
and you divide both sides by 4

4/4 =36/4

which gives you (5,9)
x= 5 , y =9

Lieutenant James made an average of 3 arrests per week for 4 weeks. How many arrests does she need to make in the fifth week to

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the average arrests to be 4. It can be done by calculating the average between the average arrests and arrests during the 5th week, so we get:

Avg(1,2,3,4,5) = (Avg(1,2,3,4) + A(5)) / 2

Where Avg(x) is the average of arrests in given weeks, and A(x) is the number of arrests in a given week.

Solving for A(5) => A(5) = 2*Avg(1,2,3,4,5) - Avg(1,2,3,4) = 2 * 4 - 3 = 8-3 = 5
