Answer: y = 3x-8
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
The slope is 3, so m = 3
The given point is (3,1) meaning x = 3 and y = 1. The x coordinate is always listed first in an ordered pair. The general format is (x,y)
We'll use m = 3, x = 3 and y = 1 to find the y intercept
y = mx+b
y = m*x+b
1 = 3*3+b ... plug in m = 3, x = 3 and y = 1
1 = 9+b
1-9 = 9+b-9 ... subtract 9 from both sides
-8 = b
b = -8
----------------
So we're given m = 3 as the slope and we just found that b = -8 is the y intercept
So y = mx+b updates to y = 3x-8. This is the final answer.
----------------
Side Notes:
* The slope of 3 means rise/run = 3/1 indicating each time we go up 3, we move to the right 1
* The y intercept -8 is the location on the vertical y axis numberline where the graph crosses. The point (0,-8) is on this line.
it's 0.4 while it may look like 4% it's actually 40% of 1
So if 2 notebooks cost 12 divide that
12/2 =6 $ each
So to check if its true the 3notebooksx $6 dollars each should =$18 for 3 notebooks
5 notebooks at $6 each = $30 for 5 notebooks
so What is 4notebooks x$6 each ? =4x6 = $24 for 4 notebooks
The price of the small pots is $2.40 so you would have 2.4s ( multiply the number of small pots by the price)
She bought a total of 14 pots, so the number of large pots would be 14 - s ( subtract the number of small pots from the total )
Now you have:
L = 14-s
2.4s + 5.6(14-s) = 49.6
The answer is C.
