@Vocaloid

Vocaloid:

any ideas? what's the slope of the dotted line?

Nicole:

C or D??

Vocaloid:

|dw:1540425760857:dw|

Nicole:

this is harddd lolol

Vocaloid:

alright let's compare in the y-direction only |dw:1540425930573:dw|

Vocaloid:

try to repeat the process but in the x-direction this time

Nicole:

A?

Vocaloid:

yes since the function increases 4 in the x-direction the slope is -5/4 the shading is underneath the line so A is the only possibility

Vocaloid:

any attempts to graph these two equations on the same graph?

Nicole:

C

Vocaloid:

good

Vocaloid:

if it has the solution (-6,0) that means x = -6 and y = 0 must make both equations valid so see which answer choice fits this description

Nicole:

B

Vocaloid:

yeah good

Vocaloid:

identify the point where the two blue lines cross

Nicole:

B

Vocaloid:

good

Vocaloid:

just gotta graph them and see where they intersect be careful

Nicole:

D

Vocaloid:

good

Vocaloid:

ugh, substitution really isn't the best way to do this one but if they insist, start by solving 3x + 2y = 0 for x

Nicole:

D?? i think

Vocaloid:

yeah that's it

Vocaloid:

let q = number of quarters and n = number of nickels total coins = 200 so q + n = 200 the total value is 30.00. the value of q quarters is 0.25q and the value of n nickels is 0.05n, using the values of the coins so 0.25q + 0.05n = 30 p + n = 200 solve for

Nicole:

C?

Vocaloid:

*should be q + n not p + n

Vocaloid:

yeah good

Vocaloid:

any ideas? try multiplying the equations by a whole # constant such that you can eliminate either x or y
