Answer:

y=7/4x+9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

(1,4) and (-3,-3).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (1, 4), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]y_1[/tex]. Or,

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (-3,-3), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called [tex]x_2[/tex] and [tex]y_2[/tex]. Or,

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

m=  

[tex]\frac{-3-4}{-3-1}[/tex]

m= 7/4

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=7/4x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(1,4). When x of the line is 1, y of the line must be 4.

(-3,-3). When x of the line is -3, y of the line must be -3.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=7/4x+b. b is what we want, the 7/4 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specifically passes through the two points (1,4) and (-3,-3).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(1,4). y=mx+b or 4=7/4 × 1+b, or solving for b: b=4-(7/4)(1). b=9/4.

(-3,-3). y=mx+b or -3=7/4 × -3+b, or solving for b: b=-3-(7/4)(-3). b=9/4.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(1,4) and (-3,-3)

is

y=7/4x+9/4

Answer:

muy bien ami si me funciono la pregunta

Answer:

2(k + 9) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive property.

2 x k = 2k

2 x 9 = 18

Equation:

2k + 18 = 4

Subtract 18 from both sides

2k = -14

Divide both sides by 2

k = -7

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to write this an equation

2(k+9)=4

2k+18=4

-18       -18

2k=-14

/2      /2

k=-7

Answer:

90 pairs

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use clues from the problem in order to set up our inequality.

First, we know that a pair of earrings, [tex]p[/tex], costs $8.50. So, we can say that [tex]8.5p=[/tex] total profit.

That's a function we could use, but we need an inequality. Well, it says that Stephanie wants to make no less, or at least $765. This indicates that we need the 'greater than or equal to' symbol. Just replace the equal sign:

[tex]8.5p\geq 765[/tex]

Now we can isolate [tex]p[/tex] to find how many earrings she needs to sell to make a profit of at least $765.

[tex]8.5p\geq 765\\\\p\geq \frac{765}{8.5}\\\\p\geq 90[/tex]

Stephanie needs to sell at least 90 pairs of earrings.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

13 full hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide.

100 / 7.75 ≈ 12.9

He needs to work FULL hours, so round up.

12.9 -> 13

Best of Luck!

Answer:

He would need to work 13 hours.

Explanation:

If you divide 7.75 from 100 you will get a decimal of 12.9032258065 but if we round then it would be 13 meaning that the answer is 13 hours.

Answer:

$181.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Si cuesta 85 dólares por 3 horas, queremos duplicarlo para obtener la cantidad por 6 horas, que es 170 dólares. Esto es antes del impuesto a las ventas. Puede encontrar la cantidad después del impuesto a las ventas multiplicando 170 por 1.07. Hace esto porque el 100 por ciento del costo sería 170 por 1 y el 7 por ciento es .07, por lo que si desea el 107 por ciento del costo, debe hacerlo 170 por 1.07. Esto funciona porque toma el 7 por ciento de 170 y lo agrega al costo total. También puede hacer esto 170 veces .07. Luego suma el producto a 170. 181,9 es la respuesta final.

English- If it costs 85 dollars for 3 hours we want to double that to get the amount for 6 hours which is 170 dollars. This is before sales tax. You can find the amount after sales tax by multiplying 170 by 1.07. You do this because 100 percent of the cost would be 170 times 1, and 7 percent is .07, so if you want 107 percent of the cost you want to do 170 times 1.07. This works because it takes 7 percent of 170 and adds it to the total cost. You could also do this by 170 times .07. Then add the product to 170. 181.9 is the final answer.

Answer: 7/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance of the relay race = 1 3/4 miles

Number of runners for the relay team = 4 runners

Distance to be run by each runner will be:

= Distance of the relay race / Number of runners

= 1 3/4 ÷ 4

= 7/4 ÷ 4

= 7/4 × 1/4

= 7/16

Each runner will run 7/16 miles

Based on the corresponding angles theorem, m<TUW = 127°.

If two angles on two parallel lines that are cut across by a transversal are corresponding to each other, the corresponding angles theorem states that they are congruent to each other.

Given:

m<QRU = 127

Angles QRU and TUW are corresponding angles. Therefore:

m<TUW = m<QRU = 127° [corresponding angles theorem]

-6 because -6 times -6 is a positive 36 negative times negative is positive

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so basically. The "-6" and the fact that the answer is a positive number shows that X must be a negative number. So let us set "-6" as a positive number. Divide 36 by 6 and the answer is = 6. Add a negative sign and X is -6.

Answer: experimental

Step-by-step explanation:

In a research design such as the one described in the scenario above, participants are separated into two distinct groups. The hypothesis (if swimming with paddles is faster than without paddles) being tested is applied on one of the two groups while the other group remains as before. Hence, the group which receives the treatment which is to be tested (those who swim with paddles) are called the experimental group. The other group of participants who continue to swim without paddles are the control group.

Hence, the other group of three member who were asked to swim with paddles for two weeks are the experimental group because they are the ones who received the actual treatment in the experiment.

Answer:

  21.  perpendicular

  22.  neither

  23.  parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

It can help to plot the points on a graph and draw lines through them. This can also let you count grid squares, which can make it easier to find the slope.

21. See attachment 1. The lines are perpendicular.

QR has a slope of -3/2. ST has a slope of 2/3, the opposite reciprocal.

__

22. See attachment 2. The lines are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

__

23. The x-coordinates of Q and R are the same, so this is a vertical line at x=-1. The x-coordinates of S and T are also the same, so it is a vertical line at x=11. The two vertical lines are parallel to each other.

Additional comment

When you have a number of problems that all require similar arithmetic, it can be useful to embed that arithmetic in a spreadsheet. You have to enter the numbers somewhere to "show work" or perform a calculation, so you may as well enter them into a spreadsheet that does the calculation for you.

Of course, the slope formula is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

If you simply show the values of m for each pair of points, you can see if they are equal (lines are parallel). You can also have the spreadsheet compute their product to see if it is -1 (lines are perpendicular). If you get a #DIV/0! error, it means the line is vertical (and the product will also give an error). You can avoid error messages by making the spreadsheet more sophisticated, but that isn't necessary for the purpose here.
