Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

a typical line equation is the slope-intercept form

y = ax + b

"a" is the slope (always the factor of x) expressed as ratio of "y coordinate difference" / "x coordinate difference".

b is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0).

going from (-2, 5) to (0, 3) we see

x changes by +2 (from -2 to 0).

y changes by -2 (from 5 to 3).

so the slope is -2/+2 = -1

using one of the points (0, 3) to solve for the missing b :

3 = -1×0 + b

b = 3

so, the equation is

y = -x + 3

Is 9.99 rational or irrational
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Rational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be written as a fraction of the form.

\frac{a}{b}  \: where \: b \ne0

and a and b are integers.

9.99 =  \frac{999}{100}

Hence in this case a=999 and b=100.

Since both are integers with b being a non-zero integer, we conclude that 9.99 is a rational number.

The small right angled triangle with hypotenuse vale 5 is similar to the big triangle with b as the hypotenuse
Corresponding sides are in the same ratio so we can write 
a/12 = 5/b.....(1)

Also  applying pythagoras theorem to the large triangle 
b^2 = 5^2 + 12^2
b^2 = 169
b = 13

So substituting in equation (1):-
a  / 12 = 5  / 13
a = (5*12 ) / 13
