What is 20% of 95? (show all work)

1 answer:

6 0

we know that if 95 is out of 100%, we can write it down as 95 = 100%. we also know that x is 20% of the output value, so we can write it down as x = 20%. 
now we have the equations:
95=100%
x=20%
next we will put the equations together
95/x = 100%/20%
95/x=100/20
(95/x)*x=(100/20)*x
we multiply both sides of the equation by x
95=5*x
now we divide both sides of the equation by 5 to get x
95/5=x 
19=x 
x=19
we now know that 20% of 95 = 19

A line passes through the point (-3, -3) and has a slope of 1/2. What is the equation of the line?

To solve this, we need to understand Slope Intercept Form (SIF), as well as how to graph a line.

SIF is the standard equation of lines on graphs. It is "y=mx+b" where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0.

To find the y-intercept (which we will need to form the equation), we should simply graph the line. This will let us visualize the y-intercept, and overall make it easier to understand.

To graph a line, we should start with the point we have (that being (3, 3)) and follow the slope with rise/run. This means in this case, we will go right 2 for every 1 up, or 2 left for every 1 down.

Below I have attached a graph to help you see how to graph this, which we will get our equation from. The highlighted area is our y-intercept. The red circle shows our original point (3,3), and the blue dots show our slope.

Using the graph, we can see the equation for this line is y=1/2x+1.5.
