What they said^ lolllllllllll
y = -2x + 3....slope = -2, y int = 3
2x + 4y = 8
4y = -2x + 8
y = -1/2x + 2....slope is -1/2, y int is 2
this is graph C
If you reduce the fraction to a mixed number than it would be 2 2/5 but if you want to reduce it to a decimal it would be 2.4
Lets x is the amount of money Paul spent
y is the amount of money John spent
<span>Henry spent 3 times as much as paul = 3x
so
</span>John and paul spent $45 altogether: <span>x + y = 45
</span> john and henty spent $65 altogether: 3x+y = 65
solve the equations
3x+y = 65
x + y = 45
---------------subtract
2x = 20
x = 10
x + y = 45
y = 45 - x
y = 45 - 10
y = 35
3x = 3(10) = 30
so
Paul spent $10 (x)
John spent $ 35 (y)
Henry spent $30 (3x)
answer: John spent $ 35
double check:
$ 35 + $ 10 = $45 (<span>John and Paul spent $45 altogether)
</span>$ 35 + $30 = $65 (<span> John and Henry spent $65 altogether)</span>
