A gym teacher budgets $200 for basketballs . The minimum cost of a new basketball is $15. How many balls can she buy? Is this a minimum or a maximum amount?

Minimum of 13 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

If the gym teacher has $200 to spend and each ball costs a minimum of $15, she can buy:

= 200/15

= 13.3

= 13 balls

This is a minimum number as some balls might be more expensive than $15.

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
