Answer:

We can note that this part of the graph is a linear function. This means that is has a general form: y = mx + c where m is the slop and c is the y-intercept (value of y at x=0). For the slope, we will use the points (0,2) and (3,5) to calculate it as follows: m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (5-2)/(3-0) = 1 For the y-intercept, we can note that at x=0, the value of y is 2. This means that the equation of the first part of the graph is: y = x + 2

Olin [163]

Multiply (or distribute) the exponent outside the parenthesis with every exponent inside the parenthesis, remember that if there is no exponent shown, then the exponent is 1. Step 3: Apply the Negative Exponent Rule. Negative exponents in the numerator get moved to the denominator and become positive exponents.

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the given points, then write the equation in slope-inte

frosja888 [35]

As we go from (-6,6) to (9,1), x increases by 15 and y decreases by 5. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -5/15, or m = -1/3.

Point-slope form: y-6 = (-1/3)(x+6), using data from (-6,6).

Slope-intercept form: starting with y = mx + b, substit. -6 for x, 6 for y and -1/3 for m:

6 = (-1/3)(-6) + b, or

6 = 2 + b. Then b = 4, and the equation in slope-intercept form is

y = (-1/3)x + 4.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: Mason has 40 forty-nine cent stamps, 16 twenty cent stamps and 25 three cent stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 49 cent stamps that Mason has.

Let y represent the number of 20 cent stamps that Mason has.

Let z represent the number of 3 cent stamps that Mason has.

Mason has a collection of 49 cent stamps, 20 cent stamps, and 3 cent stamps worth $23.55. This means that

0.49x + 0.2y + 0.03z = 23.55 - - - - -1

He had 56 total 49 cent and 20 cent stamps. This means that

x + y = 56

x = 56 - y

The number of 3 cent stamps is nine more than the number of 20 cent stamps. This means that

z = y + 9

Substituting x = 56 - y and z = y + 9 into equation 1, it becomes

0.49(56 - y) + 0.2y + 0.03(y + 9) = 23.55

27.44 - 0.49y + 0.2y + 0.03y + 0.27 = 23.55

27.44 + 0.27 - 0.49y + 0.2y + 0.03y = 23.44

27.71 - 0.26y = 23.55

- 0.26y = 23.55 - 27.71

- 0.26y = - 4.16

y = - 4.16/ - 0.26y

y = 16

x = 56 - y = 56 - 16

x = 40

z = y + 9 = 16 + 9

z = 25
