Answer:m=-6/5

Step-by-step explanation: To figure this out you need to use the slope formula.

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=-17-1/17-2

m=-18/15

This Can then be reduced to m=-6/5

What is the difference between the compound interest and simple interest on rs 8000 at 15% per annum for 2 years?
Sladkaya [172]
Simple Interest:

I = P x r x t
I = 8000 x 0.15 x 2
I = 2400

Compound Interest:

A = P(e^rt)
where e is the Euclid’s constant
and A is the total amount with interest

A = 8000(e^0.15(2))
A = 10799 (rounded up)
Therefore compound interest is 2799.

The difference:
compound - simple = 2799 - 2400

Answer is rs 399.

For what values of x is x2-36=5x true?<br> 0 -9 and 4<br> 04 and 9<br> 4 and -9<br> 09 and 4
ipn [44]

Answer:

x = - 4 and x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 36 = 5x ( subtract 5x from both sides )

x² - 5x - 36 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 36) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

The factors are - 9 and + 4, since

- 9 × 4 = - 36 and - 9 + 4 = - 5, thus

(x - 9)(x + 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

Two equations are given below: a − 3b = 9 a = b − 3 What is the solution to the set of equations in the form (a, b)? (−9, −6) (−
Anna [14]

To solve this equation you can plug in these numbers into the equations, so for example you can that the equation a-3b=9 and the points are (-9,-6). you would then insert the numbers so you would have the equation (-9)-3(-6)=9. simplify -9+18=9 and there you have it, the answer is (-9,-6)

Alicia bikes 25% of a 100-mi trip on the first day. she bikes of the remaining distance on the second day. on the third day, she
DochEvi [55]
First day: 25% × 100 = 25 ( miles)
Second day : the remaining distance is 100 - 25 = 75 ( milesl
Third day: 40% × 75 = 30
25 + 75 + 30 = 130 (miles)

The center of a circle is at the origin on a coordinate grid. A line with a positive slope intersects the circle at (0, 7). Whic
denis23 [38]

The true statement is the circle has the radius equal to 7.

<h3>What is Equation of circle?</h3>

The general equation for a circle is (x-h)² + (y-k)² = r², where ( h, k ) is the center and r is the radius.

As, standard form of equation of circle is

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

At origin, equation of circle will be

(0-h)² + (0-k)² = r²

r² = x² + y²

Now, The line intersects the circle at (0,7)

r² = 0² + 7²

r² =49

r=7.

Hence, the circle has the radius equal to 7.
