Joe's Painting: 20x + 100 = y
Steve's Painting: 15x + 120 = y
x = hours worked
y = total income
We can find when the two equations intersect by making them equal to each other. That means we put an equal sign in the middle. So, it would look something like this:
20x + 100 = 15x + 120
First, we have to move the 100 by subtracting it from both sides.
20x = 15x + 120 - (100)
20x = 15x + 20
Then, we need to move the 15x by subtracting it from both sides.
20 - (15x) = 20
5x = 20
Lastly, we need to divide 5 from both sides.
5x = 20/5
x = 4
Therefore, Joe and Steve would have to work for 4 hours in order for their models to be equal to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
$1000 for 9 days
$750 for 10 days
$850 for 4 days
$900 for other days
Required
Compute the daily average
First, we need to compute the number of days her balance is $900
Assuming the billing cycle is 30 days;



The Average is then calculates using:

Is this asking for the slope?
Y=-10x+60
You do rise/run which is -20/2, so -10
Then just find the y-intercept, which is 60.
