The slope of the line l is the opposite reciprocal of y+2x=9. Rearranged the equation to y=9-2x and we get a slope of -2. The opposite reciprocal of -2 is 1/2.

y-y=m(x-x)
y-3=.5(x-4)
y=.5x+1

At the x-intercept, y=0, so
0=.5x+1
-1=.5x
x=-2

Today, a bicycle rider rode her bike 5 1/2 miles to raise money for her school. Yesterday, she rode 6 1/4 miles her grandfather
Alex

Answer:

<em>.125 or 1/8</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is looking for the difference divided by the long ride. The long ride is 6 1/4 miles, so now we need to find the difference.

In order to do this, we take the larger distance and subtract the smaller distance.

We would take (Tip: Use decimals when you can. They are easier to work with ) 6.25 - 5.5 and we get .75 or 3/4 of a mile.

Now, we put .75 over 6.25 and simplify.

.125 or 1/8

A bike store sells scooters at a 54% markup. If the store bought each scooter for $29.25, what is the resale price to the neares
7nadin3 [17]

The purchasing price of the store = $29.25.

They want to resale it at 54% markup of the purchasing price.

54% of 29.25 = 0.54 × 29.25.

On multiplying 0.54 and 29.25, we get 15.795.

Resale price = The purchasing price + Markup

                      = 29.25 + 15.795.

On adding 29.25 and 15.795, we get 45.045.

We can round it to 45 to the nearest dollar.

<h3>Therefore, the resale price to the nearest dollar is $45.</h3>
