What is the slope in the Y intercept of the line on the graph below slope= -4, Y intercept = 1
slope =-4, Y intercept = 4
slope = -1/4, Y intercept = 1
slope = -1/4, Y intercept = 4

just by looking at the graph you can see that the y int is one, so that eliminates two answers already. Then the slope is rise over run. (best thing to remember in math. rise over run) so pick two points. (0, 1) and (4,0) were the first ones i saw. to get from those two points you go from (0,1) over 4 (thats your run) and from there down 1 (thats your rise) to get to (0,4). You would then do rise over run (and because your rise goes down its negative) to get -1/4 as your slope. The answer is slope= -1/4, Y intercept = 1

$15 each

step-by-step explanation:

$45/3 children= $15 each

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
