The slope is the coefficient of x when the coefficient of y is 1.
The slope is -0.5
The y-intercept is where x=0
y = 17 - 0.5 (0)
y = 17
The y-intercept is 17.
Answer is A and B. Solutions are where the two graphs cross, so you just need to find those coordinates, which are (-5,-13) and (2,-6).
If one book = 1/8, then you can just multiply it by 3, for the three mystery books. 8x3= 24, so tony has 24 books in all.
( (r+2) * (2r-9)-(r^2+17r+30) )/(r+2)
none of the parenthetical operations or power operations can be simplified further, so multiplication and division first, left to right:
(2r(r+2) -9(r+2) - r^2 + 17r +30)/(r+2)
(2r^2 + 2r -9r+18 -r^2 +17r +30 )/(r+2)
(r^2 +10r +48)/(r+2)
You write nite so I will help
