Answer:

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 1) ← coordinates of intercepts

m = $\frac{-1-0}{0=2}$ = $\frac{-1}{-2}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$

The y- intercept is - 1 ⇒ c = - 1

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 1

Grapes cost $3.25 per pound. Darius paid a total of $26 for grapes.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:He buys 8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

You can either just add up the $3.25 until you get to the end-price, but that wont always work for every problem. The best way is to divide the 26 with the 3.25 in a written devision.

Given:

The equation is,

$2\log _3x-\log _3(x-2)=2$

Explanation:

Simplify the equation by using logarthimic property.

$\begin{gathered} 2\log _3x-\log _3(x-2)=2 \\ \log _3x^2-\log _3(x-2)=2_{}\text{ \lbrack{}log(a)-log(b) = log(a/b)\rbrack} \\ \log _3\lbrack\frac{x^2}{x-2}\rbrack=2 \end{gathered}$

Simplify further.

$\begin{gathered} \log _3\lbrack\frac{x^2}{x-2}\rbrack=2 \\ \frac{x^2}{x-2}=3^2 \\ x^2=9(x-2) \\ x^2-9x+18=0 \end{gathered}$

Solve the quadratic equation for x.

$\begin{gathered} x^2-6x-3x+18=0 \\ x(x-6)-3(x-6)=0 \\ (x-6)(x-3)=0 \end{gathered}$

From the above equation (x - 6) = 0 or (x - 3) = 0.

For (x - 6) = 0,

$\begin{gathered} x-6=0 \\ x=6 \end{gathered}$

For (x - 3) = 0,

$\begin{gathered} x-3=0 \\ x=3 \end{gathered}$

The values of x from solving the equations are x = 3 and x = 6.

Substitute the values of x in the equation to check answers are valid or not.

For x = 3,

$\begin{gathered} 2\log _3(3^{})-\log _3(3-2)=2 \\ 2\log _33-\log _31=2 \\ 2\cdot1-0=2 \\ 2=2 \end{gathered}$

Equation satisfy for x = 3. So x = 3 is valid value of x.

For x = 6,

$\begin{gathered} 2\log _36-\log _3(6-2)=2 \\ 2\log _36-\log _34=2 \\ \log _3(6^2)-\log _34=2 \\ \log _3(\frac{36}{4})=2 \\ \log _39=2 \\ \log _3(3^2)=2 \\ 2\log _33=2 \\ 2=2 \end{gathered}$

Equation satifies for x = 6.

Thus values of x for equation are x = 3 and x = 6.

How many gallons, quarts, and pints are in 72 cups (not all together)

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

72 cups=4.5 gallons

72 cups=18 quarts

72 cups=36 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many pints are in 72 cups you have to divide the volume value by 2. To find out how many quarts are in 72 cups you have to divide the volume value by 4. To find out how many gallons are in 72 cups you have to divide the volume value by 16.

Hope this helped for you!
