Answer:

y = 3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

General equation of a line in the slope intercept form is

y = mx + b ,

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept ( where intercepts the y-axis)

y = 3x + b ,

because is given slope is m = 3

For point (x = -2, y = -8) we have

-8 = 3 (-2) + b

-8 = -6 + b

-8 + 6 = b

-2 = b

The equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,-8) and has a slope of 3 is

y = 3x -2

Chester has a coupon for 1/10 off the price of a shirt. If the shirt originally costs $28.70, what discount would chester reciev

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Chester would receive a discount of $2.87 on using the coupon.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Original cost of shirt = $28.70

Discount =

$\dfrac{1}{10}\text{ of the original price}$

We have to find the discount Chester would receive from using this coupon.

Discount amount =

$=\dfrac{1}{10}\times \text{Original Price}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}\times 28.70\\\\=2.87$

Thus, Chester would receive a discount of $2.87 on using the coupon.

Evaluate tan45/sin30 . In your final answer, include all calculations.

Maslowich

From the identity $\displaystyle{ \tan x= \frac{\sin x}{\cos x}$ , and from the values:

$\sin45^{\circ}=\cos45^{\circ}= \frac{ \sqrt{2}}{2}$ ,

we have: $\displaystyle{ \tan 45^{\circ}= \frac{\sin 45^{\circ}}{\cos 45^{\circ}}= \frac{ \frac{ \sqrt{2}}{2}}{\frac{ \sqrt{2}}{2}} =1$ .

We also know that $\sin30^{\circ}= \frac{1}{2}$ .

Thus, $\displaystyle{ \frac{\tan 45^{\circ}}{\sin30^{\circ}} = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}=2.$
