Answer:
There are 50 dimes and 110-50 = 60 quarters in the collection.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let D be the number of dimes.
Then the number of quarters is (110-D).
The "value equation" is
10D + 25*(110-D) = 2000.
Simplify and solve for D:
10D + 2750 - 25D = 2000,
-15D = 2000 - 2750,
-15D = -750,
D = %28-750%29%2F%28-15%29 = 50.
The answer will be calculated by Pythagoras theorem here -
y = mx + b, where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.
Since you are not given the y-intercept, you have to solve for it through the equation, y = (4/5)x (which is the slope you are given) + b, and replace x and y with values given, which are (-5,-3)
y = (4/5)x + b
-3 = (4/5)(-5) + b
-3 = -4 + b
1 = b
Then replace b in the first equation to get the answer
y = (4/5)x + 1
Answer:
y = 2x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Looks like we already have the slope of this line: It is 2. Working with the point (1, -5), we have x = 1 and y = -5 and can from this info easily find the y-intercept, b:
y = mx + b becomes
y = 2x + b, which in turn becomes
-5 = 2(1) + b, or
b = -7,
and so the desired equation is y = 2x - 7
