Question

The number of cans the soup kitchen has is represented by the equation, y = -63x + 825, where x represents the number of days and y represents the number of cans. How many cans will the soup kitchen have left after 10 days?

Answer 1

x=days
when x=10

y=-63(10)+825
y=-630+825
y=195


has 195 cans left after 10 days

Answer 2

195

Explanation:

As you need to find the amount of cans that the soup kitchen will have left after 10 days, you have to replace the number of days in the equation given:

y = -63x + 825

x= number of days

y= number of cans

y= -63(10)+825

y= -630+825

y= 195

The amount of cans that the soup kitchen will have left after 10 days is 195.
