The equation  in slope-intercept form to represent the relationship between hours worked (x) and earnings in dollars (y) is y = $5 + $15x.

An equation in slope intercept form is usually written as: y = mx + b

Where:

  • m = slope
  • b = intercept

If I earn $15 per hour when  I babysit,  the amount I earn increases by $15 every hour. $15 is the slope of the equation. After 3 hours, the total amount I would earn is: $15 x 5 = $45.

In order to determine the intercept, subtract $45 from $50.

$50 - $45 = $5.

S+m+l=28
4s+2m+l=58
6s+5m+4l=135

Eliminate the variable l from the first 2 equations

s+m+l=28
-4s-2m-l=-58
-3s-m=-30

Elminiate the variable l from the last 2 equations

6s+5m+4l=135
-16s-8m-4l=-232
-10s-3m=-97

Now solve for s and m using the 2 equations without l

-3s-m=-30
-10s-3m=-97

9s+3m=90
-10s-3m=-97
-s=-7
s=7

Then plug in s into one of the equations without l

-3(7)-m=-30
-21-m=-30
-m=-9
m=9

Now plus in s and m into one of the original 3 equations

(7)+(9)+l=28
16+l=28
l=12

Final answer:
Small=$7
Medium=$9
Large=$12

I know it only asks for large but I wanted to show you how to find them all for future reference. :)

First, you need to find out the perimeter of the fence and how much of the fence he had around his garden last year (leftovers) and subtract them I think.
