The equation of the line that passes through the points is y = -x - 8

<h3>What is an equation of the line that passes through the points?</h3>

The points are given as:

(−1,−7) and (−8,0)

Calculate the slope (m) using

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

So, we have

m = (0 + 7)/(-8 + 1)

This gives

m = -1

The equation of the line that passes through the points is then calculated as

y = m(x - x1) + y1

So, we have

y = -1(x + 8) + 0

This gives

y = -x - 8

Hence, the equation of the line that passes through the points is y = -x - 8

QveST [7]
Let x = Snicker Bars
Let y = Wrapping paper

Therefore, solve as simultaneous equation:
16x + 4y = 132
20x + 6y = 190

Solve for y:
16x + 4y = 132
x = 132 - 4y/16

Substitute value of x into 20x + 6y = 190:
20(132 - 4y/16) + 6y = 190
2640 - 80y/16 + 6y = 190
2640 - 80y = 16(190 - 6y)
2640 - 80y = 3040 - 96y
96y - 80y = 3040 -2640
16y = 400
y = 400/16
y = 25

Substitute value of y = 25 in x = 132 - 4y/16 to find x:
x = 132 - 4(25)/16
x = 2

Therefore, the prices per Snickers snack bars is 2.

Pick out the set of numbers that is not Pythagorean triple
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{9,40,46}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Let's check it using Pythagorean Theorem:</em></u>

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Where c is the longest sides, a and b are rest of the 2 sides

1) 9 , 40 , 46

=> c^2 = a^2 + b^2

=> 46^2 = 9^2 + 40^2

=> 2116 = 81 + 1600

=> 2116 ≠ 1681

So, this is not a Pythagorean Triplet

2) 16, 30 and 34

=> c^2 = a^2 + b^2

=> 34^2 = 16^2 + 30^2

=> 1156 = 256 + 900

=> 1156 = 1156

No need to check more as we've found the one which is not a Pythagorean Triplet.

Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (-2,-6) and (6,-4)
JulsSmile [24]
Slope of line
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
=(-4--6)/(6--2)
=2/8
=1/4

Line in two point form
(y-y1)=m(x-x1)
y--2=(1/4)(x-6)
y+2=(1/4)(x-6)
simplify
4(y+2)=x-6 =>
x-4y-14=0
Alternatively, use the slope intercept form:
y--2=(1/4)(x-6) =>
y=(1/4)x - 3/2-2 =>
y=(1/4)x -7/2
