Y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept

alrighty, find the slope

slope between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

the slope between (8,-1) and (-4,2) is (2-(-1))/(-4-8)=(2+1)/(-12)=3/-12=-1/4

y=(-1/4)x+b
find b
subsitute a point
(8,-1)
x=8 and y=-1
-1=(-1/4)(8)+b
-1=-2+b
1=b

the  y intercept is y=1 or the point (0,1)

The after school craft center has 15 boxes of 64 crayons each. In 12 of the boxes , 28 of the crayons have not been used. All th
Korolek [52]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

624 crayons.

Explanation:

In 12 of the boxes, 28 crayons have not been used; this leaves 64-28=36 crayons that have been used. 12(36) = 432 crayons have been used in these boxes.

3 full boxes have been used; this is 3(64) = 192 crayons.

Together this makes 432+192 = 624 crayons that have been used.

I need help with geometry
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

m<1=?

m<2=4x-20..........(1)

m<4=3x-11.............(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

  • m<2=m<4(corresponding angle of parrelelogram are equal)
  • 4x-20=3x-11
  • 4x-3x=20-11
  • x=9

again.we have

<1+<2=180(co-interior angle)

<1=180-<2=180-(4×9-20)=180-16=164

Please help find the percent of increase?!
Contact [7]

Subtract to find the difference:

2000 - 500 = 1500

Divide the difference by the original population:

1500 / 500 =  3

Multiply that by 100 to get the percentage:

3 x 100 = 300%

Find the zeros of the function and write in a+bi form.<br><br><br> -(x+1)^2-4=0
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

x = -(1 + 4i)

or x = -1+4i

Step-by-step explanation:

From what we have;

-(x + 1)^2 = 4

(x + 1)^2 = -4

x + 1 = √-4

x + 1 = -4i or 4i

x = -1 - 4i or -1 + 4i

*ANSWER PLS TY* Find The Volume Of The Pyramid
spin [16.1K]

Answer: A. 1120 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the volume of the pyramid: V=\frac{1}{3} lwh

l (length)=16

w (width)=14

h (height)=15

     V=\frac{1}{3} lwh

     V=\frac{1}{3} (16)(14)(15)

     V=\frac{1}{3} 3360

     V=1120
