You actually don't need a graph to be able to solve this equation. As long as you are given two data points, you can already solve for the linear equation.

The most common way of writing linear equations is the slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The slope is the ratio of the change of y to the change of x coordinates. Let's say point 1 is (-1,3) and point 2 is (2,-3). Then,

m = (-3-3)/(2-⁻1) = -2

Next, we use any of the given point to the standard equation along with the m to find b. Let's use (-1,3)

3 = -2(-1)+b
b = 1

Thus, the complete linear equation is y = -2x + 1. The answer is B.

Solve the quadratic equation y^2-2y-35=0
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Hello,

To solve we need to factor y^2-2y-35:

(y-7)(y+5)=0

Now solve for :

(When will (y-7)(y+5)equal zero?)

When y-7=0 or y+5=0

Solve for the 2 equations above and;

y= 7,-5

Hope this helps, have a great day!

The best player on a basketball team makes 85% of all free throws. The second-best player makes
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

i. Estimated number of free throws of the best player = 0.85 * 40

ii. 34 free throws

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of free throws made by the best player = 85%

Percentage of free throws made by the second best player = 75%

Percentage of free throws made by the third best player = 70%

Therefore, for 40 attempts;

i. Estimated number of free throws made by the best player = 85% x 40

                                                         = 0.85 x 40

                                                         = 34

ii. Estimated number of free throws made by the second best player = 75%x 40

                                                                 = 0.75 x 40

                                                                 = 30

iii. Estimated number of free throws made by the third best player = 70% x 40

                                                                   = 0.70 x 40

                                                                   = 28

Thus, the equation that gives the estimated number of free throws is 0.85 * 40.

The best player will make about 34 free throws.
