Mrs. Jacobson asked her students to write a word problem that describes the graph below. A graph has days on the x-axis and money on the y-axis. A line goes through points (0, 8) and (4, 0). Which word problem accurately describes the graph? Jamie has $8, and she pays $2 per day to ride the bus. Melinda has $4 and earns $2 allowance per day doing chores. Carrina has $8, and she earns $2 per day babysitting. Louise has $4, and she pays $2 per day for school lunch.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x

17

step-by-step explanation:

51/3=17

thus 17 is your answer.

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
