Hello!

Firstly, we can complete the linear function. To complete it, we need to find the y-intercept of the equation. To find it, we use the equation: y = -2/3x + b, substitute the point (2, 1) into the equation, and solve for b.

1 = -2/3(2) + b

1 = -4/3 + b (add 4/3 to both sides)

b = 7/3

The completed linear equation is: y = -2/3x + 7/3.

The easiest way to find the ordered pair that is on the graph is to graph the equation and label the points (the graph is posted below).

As seen on the graph, the ordered pair, (8, -3), is graphed. To prove it is correct, we can substitute the ordered pair into the linear function.

-3 = -2/3(8) + 7/3

-3 = -16/3 + 7/3

-3 = -3 | True!

Therefore, the answer is choice D, (8, -3).

I don't know any good sites with ACT practice problems, sorry and good luck!

Which action is not a step in using paper folding to find the midpoint of a line

dedylja [7]

Answer:

A. Draw a line from the segment to any point on the fold line.

Step-by-step explanation:

When using the paper folding method to find the midpoint of a line segment we take the following steps:

Draw a line segment on the tracing paper
Fold the tracing paper so that the endpoints lie on top of each other
Mark the intersection of the fold and the segment with a point

These steps include statements B, C, and D. Drawing a line from the segment to any point on the fold line, which is statement A, is not included in these steps because it is not needed.

Thus, choice A is not a step in using paper folding to find the midpoint of a line segment.

Answer:

1) His total commission is $1,234.3

2) The purchase of the car is $24,790.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 21640*0.02= 432.8+ 250= 682.8

15075*0.02= 301.5+ 250= 551.5

682.8+ 551.5= 1,234.3

2) 745.8- 250= 495.8/ 0.02= 24,790
