The answer is b because the problem is starting that
We have to,
write a word problem for this equation,
→ 2/3 × 5
Let's write a word problem,
<u>For one student 2/3 part of one cake is needed. Then how </u><u>many</u><u> </u><u>cakes will they have to buy for 5 students?</u>
What you want to do here is take this information and plug it into point-slope form. any time you're given a point and a slope, you generally want to plug it into this equation: y - y1 = m(x - x1).
in this equation, m is your slope and (x1, y1) is a given point. plug in your info--slope of -3 and (-5, 2).
y - 2 = -3(x + 5)
that is the equation of your line. however, if you want to graph it, this doesn't really make much sense to you. convert it to slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, by solving for y.
y - 2 = -3(x + 5) ... distribute -3
y - 2 = -3x - 15 ... add 2
y = -3x - 13 is your equation.
to graph this, and any other y = mx + b equation, you want to start with your y-intercept if it's present. your y intercept here is -13, which means the line you wasn't to graph crosses the y-axis at y = -13, or (0, -13). put a point there.
after you've plotted that point, you use your slope to graph more. remember that your slope is "rise over run"--you rise up/go down however many units, you run left/right however many units. if your slope is -3, you want to go down 3 units, then go to the right 1 unit. remember that whole numbers have a 1 beneath them as a fraction. -3/1 is your rise over 1.
Answer:
x = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
From the diagram, we find,
(2x - 16) + (x - 8) = 9
=> 2x - 16 + x - 8 = 9
=> 2x + x - 16 - 8 = 9
=> 3x - 24 = 9
=> 3x = 9 + 24
=> 3x = 33
=> x = 33/3
=> x = 11
None. They're already pickled so someone else must've picked them before him.
