Answer:

y = 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the line shown in your question.

We want to write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the value of y at the y intercept

As we are given the graph of the line, we can pick any 2 points to help us find the equation; in this case, let's take (0,3) and (-1, -1).

First, we need to find the slope of the line

The slope (m) can be found using the equation \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}, where (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) are points

Let's label the values of the points to avoid confusion and mistakes before calculating.

x_1= 0\\y_1=3\\x_2=-1\\y_2=-1

Now substitute these values into the equation for the slope

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-1-3}{-1-0}

Subtract

m=\frac{-4}{-1}

Divide

m = 4

The slope of the line is 4

Here is the equation of the line so far:

y = 4x + b

Now we need to find b

As stated above, b is the value of y at the y intercept; the y intercept is the point where the line intersects with the y axis. The value of x at this point is 0

One of the points we used to calculate the slope was actually the y intercept point; this point is (0, 3). The value of y at this point is 3, so the value of b is 3

Substitute 3 as b in our equation

y = 4x + 3

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a right triangle, so you can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

x^2 + 144 = 169

x^2 = 25

x = 5

Answer: x = 5

barxatty [35]
<span>To find the number of nickels and dimes, we can use this equation: 0.10d + 0.05n = 5.25

We are given the information that Sonji has 21 dimes (which means that d=21). We can use the equation to find the number of nickels n.

0.10d + 0.05n = 5.25
0.10(21) + 0.05n = 5.25
2.10 + 0.05n = 5.25
0.05n = 3.15
n = 3.15 / 0.05
n = 315 / 5
n = 63

Sonji has 63 nickels.

Let's check our answer.
21(0.10) + 63(0.05) = 2.10 + 3.15 = 5.25
It seems that our answer is correct.</span>

A. The color of fire when different metals are burned.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Qualitative data is data that relates to a quality or characteristic of an object, and does not include any numbers.

example: colour, taste, survey answers

Quantitative data, on the other hand, relates to measurements and counting of variables, and uses numbers to convey value.

example: height of a person, number of coins
