Answer:-1/2
Step-by-step explanation: You just find the slope which is m=y2-y1
-------
x2-x1
is the answer.
This is because the slop is found by the difference of ys over the difference of xs.
You could say 84/2, 126/3, or even 168/4
Given:
Total number of marbles in the bag = 150
There are 21 blue marbles for every 4 white marbles.
To find:
The number of blue marbles in the bag.
Solution:
Since, there are 21 blue marbles for every 4 white marbles, therefore the ratio of blue marble to white marbles is 21:4.
Let the number of blue marbles be 21x and white marbles be 4x.
Total number of marbles in the bag = 150


Divide both sides by 25.


Now,



Therefore, the number of blue marbles is 126.
Y = mx + b, where m = slope = rise/run and b, the y intercept value
m = 1/1 = 1, then y = x + b.
We notice that y intercept is = - 1
And the equation is:
y = x - 1
