To solve this problem, we first have to find the slope of the two given points. To find the slope, we have to use slope intercept form, which is y₂ - y₁ divided by x₂ - x₁. We substitute each variable for its corresponding value, and we'll get -2 - (-3) divided by 4-1. If we simplify the expression, we'll get 1/3. Next, we plug in the slope and one ordered pair into the equation and we get -3 = 1/3 * 1 + b. We should solve for b and we end up with -3 1/3 = b. Therefore, the equation is y = 1/3x - 3 1/3.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 sandwich is 6.25 (because 31.25/5)
2 sandwiches is 12.5
3 sandwiches are 18.75
4 sandwiches are 25
5 sandwiches are 31.25
6 sandwiches are 37.5
Amy - 8s + 12
8(6.25) +12 = 62
Amy paid $62.
Bob - 8(s + 2)
8(6.25 + 2) = 66
Bob pays $66.
Cathy - 4(2s + 3)
4(2 x 6.25 + 3) = 62
Cathy paid $62.
