Answer:
y=-3/2x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the slope by taking two points on the graph, and making the one that occurs earlier in the graph (from left to right) the first point (x1, y1) and the one that occurs later in the graph the second point (x2, y2). The equation is m (or slope)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). I took the first two points in the table for this. m=(12-18)/-4-(-8)
the double negative on the bottom becomes an addition=> (12-18)/(-4+8)
the top simplifies to be -6 and the bottom simplifies to 4=>-6/4
this fraction can be reduced to -3/2, which is the slope of the graph.
Now, use point slope form (y-y1=m(x-x1)) to find the equation of the graph. Plug any coordinate on the graph in for x1 and y1 here. It should be correct as long as it is a point on the graph, but I am using the point (-8, 18) here.
=>y-18=-3/2(x-(-8))
the double negative in the parentheses becomes a positive=> y-18=-3/2(x+8)
distribute the -3/2 to every term in the parentheses=> y-18=-3/2x-12
add 18 to both sides, cancelling out the -18 on the left side of the equation=>y=-3/2x+6 (-12+18=6 to get 6 for b).
Therefore, the equation is y=-3/2x+6
Answer:
S.I= 640
Step-by-step explanation:
I=prt
where p= $8,000
and r= 4%
and t= 2 years
$8,000×4%×2
8,000×4/100×2
80×4×2
=640
Therefore The S.I = 640.
Answer: y = x/2 + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where c = intercept
Slope, m = change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis
change in the value of y = y2 - y1
Change in value of x = x2 -x1
y2 = final value of y
y 1 = initial value of y
x2 = final value of x
x1 = initial value of x
Looking at the graph,
y2 = 6
y1 = 4
x2 = 6
x1 = 2
Slope,m = (6 - 4)/(6 - 2) = 2/4 = 1/2
To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 2, y = 4 and m= 1/2 into y = mx + c. It becomes
4 = 1/2 × 2 + c
4 = 1 + c
c = 4 - 1
c = 3
The equation becomes
y = x/2 + 3
Answer: Approximately 18.33%
Work Shown:
11/60 = 0.1833 approximately
This decimal converts to 18.33% when moving the decimal point over to the right two spots. Round this value however you need to.
