The point-slope form of ay line is:

y-y1=m(x-x1), where m=slope and (x1,y1) is any point on the line.

In this case we are given that m=-12 and (x1,y1) is (5,3) so

y-3=-12(x-5)

Answer:

y = -12x + 63

Step-by-step explanation:

- The equation of a line in a cartesian coordinate system is given by the following linear relationship:

                                    y = mx + c

- The constants m and c are to be determined.

- The constant m denotes the slope of the line which is given as -12.

- To evaluate constant c we will plug the slope m = -12 and use the given point ( 5 , 3 ) as the lines passes through it. Hence, we have:

                                  y = -12x + c

                                  3 = -12(5) + c

                                  3 = - 60 + c

                                  c = 63

- Then the equation of the line can be expressed by plugging in the constants m and c as follows:

                                 y = -12x + 63

Answer:

(x - 3, y + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point K starts as (1, -3)

Point K after the translation becomes (-2, 3)

The x-coordinate goes from 1 to -2. That is a change of -3 in x, or x becomes x - 3.

The y-coordinate goes from -3 to 3. That is a change of +6 in y, or y becomes y + 6.

Answer: (x - 3, y + 6)

There are 5 girls and 3 adults in Rileys field trip group.
Zanzabum

The group attended to the museum. They were 8 girls and 6 adults. So, we should calculate the total paid amount for the 6 adults, then calculate the paid amount for the 8 girls and then add up this two results.

The ticket for an adult costs $50. Since we have 6 adults, the amount paid for the adults' ticket was

50\text{ + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 +50 = 6}\cdot50\text{ = 300}

So the adults' tickets costed 300. For the girls, one child ticket costs $30. So, the amount paid for the girls' tickets was

8\cdot\text{ 30 = 240}

So the total amount paid is 300+240 = 540.

F=(9/5) C +32, C=15 Can you show me what a graph looks like?
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

F=(9/5) C +32 has the form of the equation of a straight line:  y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.  By comparing these two equations we see that the slope, m, is (9/5) and the y-intercept is 32 (or (0, 32)).

To graph this, first locate the y-intercept (0, 32); put a dark dot there.  Since the slope is 32, or 32/1, move your pencil point 1 unit to the right, from (0, 32) to (1, 32), and then from (1, 32) move y our pencil point 32 units upward.  Plot another dark dot there and then draw a straight line through these two points.

We can evaluate the given function F=(9/5) C +32 at C = 15 by replacing C in the formula with 15:  F = (9/5)(15) + 32, or F = 59.

Given P(A) = 0.072, P(B) = 0.180, and P(C) = 0.027, and that events A, B, and C are mutually exclusive, what is the P(A or B or
9966 [12]

Given P(A) = 0.072, P(B) = 0.180, and P(C) = 0.027, and that events A, B, and C are mutually exclusive,then P(A or B or C) is 0.279

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that probability of event A is P(A) = 0.072

Probability of event B is P(B) = 0.180

Probability of event C is P(C) = 0.027

Also event A, B and C are mutually exclusive.

Need to determine P( A or B or C )

For mutually exclusive events  

P( A or B or C ) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C)

= 0.072 + 0.180 + 0.027  = 0.279

Hence probability of occurrence of event A or event B or event C , where A , B and C are mutually exclusive events is 0.279.

A new carpet cleaning company claims that they can clean 3 times as many carpets in 1 week as another company. If both companies
inna [77]

Answer:

The number of carpets cleaned by new company per week  is 249

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume :

The number of carpets cleaned by old company in 1 week = m

So, the number of carpets cleaned by new company in 1 week

= 3 x ( Number of carpets cleaned by old company)

 = 3 (m) = 3 m

Total carpet cleaned altogether in a week  = 332

So, Total Carpets cleaned by both companies in 1 week

= Number of carpets cleaned by ( Old + New) company in 1 week.

=  m + 3  m =  4 m

⇒  4  m = 332

or, m = 332 / 4 = 83  , or m = 83

Hence number of carpets cleaned by old company per week = m = 83

The number of carpets cleaned by new company per week

= 3 m =  3 x 83= 249
