Answer:

56 = (0.85)w

Step-by-step explanation:

"is" translates to "=".

"of" translates to "×".

We can let "what number" translate to "w".

Then ...

56 is 85% of what number . . . . translates to ...

56 = 0.85×w

_____

Of course, you know that 85% = 85/100 = 0.85.

Write the equation of the line that passes through (-1, 11) and (3, -5)
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

y= -4x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is usually written in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Let's find the gradient of the line first.

gradient =  \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}

Using the above formula,

m =  \frac{11 - ( - 5)}{ - 1 - 3}  \\ m =  \frac{11 + 5}{ - 4}  \\ m =  \frac{16}{ - 4}  \\ m =  - 4

Susbt. m= -4 into the equation:

y= -4x +c

Subst. a coordinate to find c.

When x=3, y= -5,

-5= -4(3) +c

-5= -12 +c

c= 12 -5

c=7

Thus the equation of the line is y= -4x +7.
