As we go from (-6,6) to (9,1), x increases by 15 and y decreases by 5. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -5/15, or m = -1/3.
Point-slope form: y-6 = (-1/3)(x+6), using data from (-6,6).
Slope-intercept form: starting with y = mx + b, substit. -6 for x, 6 for y and -1/3 for m:
6 = (-1/3)(-6) + b, or
6 = 2 + b. Then b = 4, and the equation in slope-intercept form is
y = (-1/3)x + 4.
A. You may set the variables in either order. But for argument sake, let's set as follows:
x = Amount of bookshelves
y = Amount of tables
B. Because of the amount of things you need to make, the following is an inequality using those variables.
x + y > 25
Plus you can determine a second inequality based on the amount of money that you have to spend.
20x + 45y < 675
Finally you may also add in that each value must be greater than or equal to zero, since they cannot have negative tables.
C. By solving the system and looking at basic constraints when graphed, you can see the feasible region has 4 vertices.
(0,0)
(18, 7)
(0, 15)
(33.75, 0) or (33, 0) if you insist on rounding.
A line means divided by
So basically if it was 1/2, then it would be 1 divided by 2.
P. S. 1 divided by 2 is not the answer I'm just explaining what a line is
12x²-9x = 0
3x(4x-3)=0
4x-3=0
4x=3
x=3/4
so either x = 0 or x = 3/4
