What is the equation of this line in slope-intercept form?

Mathematics
1 answer:
12345 [234]1 year ago
7 0

Answer:

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

The slope of the line, m, is -2 because the line shows a negative trend and moves right 1 unit every time a point moves down 2 units.

The y-intercept, b, is 5 because the line crosses that number once on the y-axis.

Members of a college chemistry department agree to contribute equal amounts of money to make up a scholarship fund of $280. Then
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

7 members

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say that the department has n members. If each member contributes with an equal amount x and make a total of $280, we know that:

n*x = 280

Where each one colaborated with:

n*x/n = 280/n

Or what is the same that: (as the n on the left eliminate themselves)

x = 280/n (*)

Now the department hires 3 more members, so we now have n+3 members. And we know that the pass from contributing x to contribute $30 less, it is, x-30 (I omit the $ symbol for simplicity). So, know we have:

x-30 = 280/(n+3)

We can replace x here by the formulation of x we did in the (*) equation:

( 280/n) - 30 = 280/(n+3)

using common denominator:

( 280/n) - 30 n/n = 280/(n+3)

( 280 - 30 n)/n = 280/(n+3)

Cross multiplying the denominators:

( 280 - 30 n)*(n+3) = 280*(n)

280n - 30n^2 + 840 - 90n = 280n

Subtracting 280 n in both sides:

30n^2 + 840 - 90n = 0

Dividing both sides by 30:

-n^2 - 3n + 28 = 0

Factorizing this term (you can notice the factor immediately or solving with baskara resolution, I omit the baskara for simplicity):

-(n + 7)(n - 4) =0

So, n is equal to 4 and -7. As we are dealing with people we can not have -7 people, so we keep only n=4.

So, previous the new hiring there were 4 members, now there are 7.

The used to collaborate with 280/4 = $70, now the collaborate with 280/7=$40, and we see the collaboration decreased in $30.

Use the table to work out the values of a , b , c , and d .​
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a = 10, b = 6, c = 2, d = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the appropriate values of x into the equation and evaluate

x = - 3 : y = 4 - 2(- 3) = 4 + 6 = 10 → a

x = - 1 : y = 4 - 2(- 1) = 4 + 2 = 6 → b

x = 1 : y = 4 - 2(1) = 4 - 2 = 2 → c

x = 2 : y = 4 - 2(2) = 4 - 4 = 0 → d
