Answer:
Use the slope-intercept form
y
=
m
x
+
b
to find the slope
m
.
m
=
15
Step-by-step explanation:
Cuz i know all that
To find the slope, you should rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form, ie. y = mx + c, where m is the gradient.
y - 9 = 15(x - 5)
y = 15(x - 5) + 9 (Add 9 to each side)
y = 15x - 15*5 + 9 (Expand 15(x - 5))
y = 15x - 75 + 9
y = 15x - 66
Therefor, the slope of the equation is 15.
0.1x+0.25y=29.8
How many dimes and quarters are in the container?
A.
123 dimes and 55 quarters
B.
114 dimes and 64 quarters
C.
102 dimes and 76 quarters
D.
98 dimes and 80 quarters
x+y=178
0.1x+0.25y=29.8
Solve x+y =178 for x
Add -y to both sides
x+y+-y=178+-y
x= -y+178
Substitute -y+178 for x in 0.1x+0.25y=29.8
0.1x+0.25y=29.8
0.1(-y+178)+0.25y=29.8
Simplify both sides of the equation
0.15y+17.8=29.8
Add -17.8 to both sides
0.15y+17.8+-17.8=29.8+-17.8
0.15y=12
Divide both sides by 0.15
0.15y/0.15= 12/0.15
y=80
Substitute 80 for y in x = -y+178
x= -y+178
x= -80+178
Simplify both sides of the equation
x= 98
Answer: D
x=98 and y= 80
I hope that's help !
