Can someone help me understand Slope-Intercept Form for algebra please???
1 answer:
Answer:
The slope-intercept form is simply the way of writing the equation of a line so that the slope (steepness) and y-intercept (where the line crosses the vertical y-axis) are immediately apparent. Often, this form is called y = mx + b form. This form of a line is one of the most commonly used in algebra classes.

A: 45x + 30y = 1350
Since we don’t know how many adults and children are in the group, we use x and y
b: x-intercept= 30 y-intercept=45
To find the x-intercept you need to isolate the variable. 45x/45 = x
Then you do the same thing to the other side. 1350/45 = 30
So x=30
Same thing with the y-intercept.
30y/30 = y 1350/30 = 45
y=45 (Not really sure what it means by “what they represent” but I thinks it’s that there are 30 adult tickets and 45 children tickets )
c: so our points are (30,0) and (0,45) so you would graph that.
To find how many children tickets were bought if there were 20 adult tickets just look at the photo I put. I don’t know how to explain this.
Hope this helps

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A car starts with a dull tank of gas
1/7 of the gas has been used around the city.
With the rest of the gas in the car, the car can travel to and from Ottawa three times.
Question asked:
What fractions of a tank of gas does each complete trip to Ottawa use?
Solution:
Fuel used around the city =
Remaining fuel after driving around the city = 1 -
=
According to question:
As from the rest of the gas in the car that is , the car can complete 3 trip to Ottawa which means,
By unitary method:
The car can complete 3 trip by using = tank of gas.
The car can complete 1 trip by using =
=
=
= tank of gas
Thus, tank of gas used for each complete trip to Ottawa.
