Please anyone help me on this

Standard line equation:

y=ax+b

The point (5,1) is on the line. so :

1=a(5)+b → 1=5a+b

The point (1,-5) is also on the line. Then :

-5=a(1)+b → -5=a+b

Subtract the two equations in terms of a and b. we have:

6=4a → a=3/2 , b=-6.5

y=1.5x-6.5

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

subtract 15 from all parts

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

this means how many more cookies he has to make

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies, but no more than 40 cookies; 5 ≤ x ≤ 40
