3 days after picking apples, a family had 100 apples left. After 6 days, 76 apples were left. Assuming a linear function, write an equation in the form a(t)=mt+b that shows the number of apples, a(t), left t days after picking them. Be sure to include "a(t) =" in your answer.

a(t) = -8t + 124

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of apples left 3 days after picking them is given by the following equation:

3 days after picking apples, a family had 100 apples left.

This means that

So

After 6 days, 76 apples were left.

So a(6) = 76. Then

Since b = 100 - 3m

b:

So

a(t) = -8t + 124.

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1

step-by-step explanation:

first you will have to convert 3/4 into a decimal

which is .75

then you will have to divide 1.5 by .75

which is 2

no you have to divide
