$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
&&(~ -2 &,& -2~) 
&&(~ 0 &,& 5~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{5-(-2)}{0-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{5+2}{0+2}\implies \cfrac{7}{2}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-2)=\cfrac{7}{2}[x-(-2)]
\\\\\\
y+2=\cfrac{7}{2}(x+2)\implies y+2=\cfrac{7}{2}x+7\implies y=\cfrac{7}{2}x+5$

How do I solve: 15 - w/4 = 28 (this is 2 step equations)

kenny6666 [7]

First we need to isolate the variable so we add 15 to both sides which is
w/4=43 then we need to multiply by 4 to both sides so its 4w=172
then divide by 4 which is 43 so the answer is w=43

You deposit $400 in an account earning 2% interest compounded annually. How much will you have in the account in 20 years?

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Approximately $594.38

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula: y = a(1 + r)^t
a is the initial amount
r is the percent of interest in decimal form
t is the time in years
y is the money after t years

Substitute the values given in the problem into the equation:
400(1+0.02)^20
Use a calculator or solve manually
Around 594.38

OAB is a sector of a circle <br>what is the area of the sector

oee [108]

Answer:

12.56 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

$Central \:angle \:(\theta) = 40°\\Radius \: (r) = 6 cm$

Let A be the area of the sector of circle.

$\therefore \: A = \frac{\theta }{360 \degree} \times \pi {r}^{2} \\ \\= \frac{ 40 \degree}{360 \degree} \times 3.14\times {6}^{2} \\ \\ = \frac{ 1}{9} \times 3.14 \times 36 \\ \\ = 3.14 \times 4 \\ \\ = 12.56 \: {cm}^{2}$

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. the equation from the graphed line in slope-point form using the point 2,-1

Arada [10]

The formula for point-slope form is y-a=m(x-c), where y and x are variables, a is simply one point in y, m is the slope, and c is simply one point in x. The first thing we can find is m, or the slope. This is found by dividing the change in y over the change in x. The equation for this is (I’ll plug the points in the equation)
$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} = \frac{y_{1}-y_{2}}{x_{1}-x_{2}} = \frac{-1-(-2)}{2-(-2)}= \frac{-1+2}{2+2} =1/4$

Therefore, our answer is the bottom one as our slope is 1/4.
