Algebra Word Problems A group of 8 friends share a large cherry pie. The
pie costs $34.00. The 8 friends split the bill
individually. How much does each friend pay?
Write an equation and then solve it to determine
how much each friend pays.

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
