Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation will be in the form

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 ) = (0, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2.5, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{0-5}{2.5-0}$ = - 2

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 5) ⇒ c = 5

y = - 2x + 5 or

y = 5 - 2x → A

Answer:

$m=-7$

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Algebra I

Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Find points from chart.

Point (39, 36)

Point (40, 29)

Step 2: Find slope m

Substitute: $m=\frac{29-36}{40-39}$
Subtract: $m=\frac{-7}{1}$
Divide: $m=-7$

Ms. Cruz has a tank with 11 fish. After buying two more, she has 2 less than triple the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has. How m

notka56 [123]

Answer:

a) The variable, M represents the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set equation is 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of fishes in Ms. Cruz's tank = 11 fishes

The number of fishes Ms, Cruz has after buying two more fishes = 3 × The amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has - 2 fishes

a) Let the variable, M represent the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has

b) The set up equation is as follows;

11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2

c) From the equation, 11 + 2 = 3 × M - 2, we have;

13 = 3·M - 2

3·M = 13 + 2 = 15

3·M = 15

M = 15/3 = 5

M = 5

The number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has is 17 fishes

Simplify the given expression. (4x2squared-15x-21)+3x2squared-10)

Bess [88]

Answer:

$7x^{2} - 15x -31$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(4x^{2} - 15x -21) + 3x^{2} - 10 = 4x^{2} + 3x^{2} - 15x -21 - 10 = 7x^{2} - 15x -31$
