Answer 1

2x+3y=24 is the equation and the slope intercept form y=-2/3x+8

Explanation:

Jessica has $24 and plans to spend it all at the grocery store.

Bags of carrots cost $2 each, and bagels cost $3 per bag.

Let x represent the number of bags of carrots and y represent the number of bags of bagels.

the cost for the 'x' bags of carrots = $2x

and the cost for the 'y' bags of bagels = $3y

So, the equation would be,

so the equation in standard form that models the given scenario is

2x + 3y = 24

2x + 3y = 24
