Find the equation of the line passing through the points 7,2 and 9,1

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = -1/2x +11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (1 -2)/(9 -7) = -1/2

The y-intercept is ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 2 -(-1/2)(7) = 11/2

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = -1/2x +11/2

_____

Alternative solution

A general form equation for the line can be ...

  (y1 -y2)(x -x1) -(x1 -x2)(y -y1) = 0

  (2 -1)(x -7) -(7 -9)(y -2) = 0

  x-7 +2y -4 = 0

  x +2y -11 = 0 . . . . . general form equation

  x +2y = 11 . . . . . . . standard form equation

Note that we want the x-coefficient to be positive, so we chose the order of the points to make that be the case.

Sociologists studying social mobility in the U.S. find that the probability that someone who began their career in the bottom 10% of earnings remains in the bottom 10% fifteen years later is 0.59. What is the probability that such a person moves to one of the higher income classes fifteen years later? (Use decimal notation. Give your answer as an exact number.)
probability:

Answers

Using probability of complementary events, it is found that there is a 0.41 probability that such a person moves to one of the higher income classes fifteen years later.

When two events are complementary, the sum of their probabilities are 1.

In this problem, either a person moves to a higher income class or they do not, hence, the events are complementary.

0.59 probability that a person does not move to a higher class.Hence, 1 - 0.59 = 0.41 probability that such a person moves to one of the higher income classes fifteen years later.

Body surface area is calculated a) in m2 from weight and height. b) from height. c) from weight. d) in meters from weight and height.

Answers

Answer:

Body surface area is calculated a) in m2 from weight and height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically the surface has to be in m2, because you have two dimensions when you multiply: e.g. when you have a lawn 10m x 10m, then you multiply 10 times 10, and meters times meters, so

[tex]10m * 10m = 100m^2[/tex]

We want to find the equation for the graphed rational function. Notice that the options are not given, so I will try to find the function only from the graph.

The function is:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x - 5)}{x - 1}[/tex]

How to analyze the graph of a rational function?

The first thing that we can see in the graph is that we have vertical asymptotes at x = 1.

The one in the positive side (of the x range) goes to negative infinity, while the other goes to positive infinity, then the equation will be something like:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{something}{x - 1}[/tex]

Such that the asymptotes are caused when the denominator is equal to zero.

We can see that we also have a horizontal asymptote at y = 1.

This means that, as x tends to infinity, our function will tend to 1, so we have something like:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x + b)}{x - 1}[/tex]

The horizontal asymptote is equal to the ratio of the leading coefficients when both polynomials have the same degree, like here, so we can take the two leading coefficients equal to 1, such that:

y = 1/1 = 1

To find the value of b, we evaluate the function in 0:

[tex]f(0) = \frac{b}{-1} = -b[/tex]

And if you look at the graph, you can see that at x = 0 we have:

f(0) = 5

then b = -5

So the function is:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x - 5)}{x - 1}[/tex]

A board foot is 1 inch thick by 1 ft by 1 ft

(3) 1 x 6  8'  are already 1 inch thick ½ ft wide and 8 ft long

  3 x 1 x (6/12) x 8 = 12 board ft.

Logan is a great babysitter. He makes $9 an hour. Jeanette is an even better babysitter. She makes $16 an hour. Jeanette works 18 hours each week. How many
hours does Logan need to work in order to earn as much money as Jeanette earns in a week?

Answers

Answer:

18hx16money=288 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

to ez and np

Answer:

32 hours a week

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find out how much Jeanette makes. You can do this by multiplying 16 x 18 since she makes $16 18 times a week. This gives you $288 that she makes each week.

Now to find how much Logan would have to work you take 288 and divide it by 9. You do this because you need to see how many times 9 goes into 288 to give you the amount of hours. When you divide you get 32.

This is directly proportional, meaning if you multiply one side by a number, you multiply the other side by the same number. For the ratio 50:4, you would have to multiply 1.5 to 50 to get 75 miles, so you would also have to multiply 4 by 1.5. This would get you 6 hours.

the regular cost. How much will the book cost before taxes if Judy is to buy it while it is on sale?
Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

$49.28 is the sale cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.35 x 75.82 = 26.537

75.82 - 26.537

= 49.283 and round

The selling cost of the book will be equal to $49.28.

What is an expression?

The mathematical expression combines numerical variables and operations denoted by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division signs.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Given that Judy is looking to buy a textbook. The book normally costs $75.82, but it is on sale for 35% below the regular cost.

The selling cost of the book will be calculated as,

Selling Cost = 0.35 x 75.82 = 26.537

Selling Cost  = 75.82 - 26.537

Selling Cost  = 49.283

as we know ....

force=mass * acceleration

force=4kg*6m/s2

hence force is 24N

The required Force = 24 N

What is Force?

The push or pull on an object with mass causes it to change its velocity.

Given that a body of 4 kg mass is accelerated at 6 m/s²

Force = ma

where m = mass and a = acceleration

F = 6*4 = 24 N
