Y=mx+b
minus b both sides
y-b=mx
divide both sides by x
(y-b)/x=m
m=(y-b)/x

Find two numbers if their ratio is 4:7 and their difference is 123.
belka [17]

Answer:

The two numbers are -164 and -287

They could also be 164 and 287

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of 2 numbers 4/7  

x/y = 4/7

Using cross products

7x =4y

Their difference is 123

x-y = 123

x = 123+y

Substituting in

7(123+y) =4y

Distribute

861 +7y = 4y

Subtract 7y from each side

861 +7y-7y = 4y-7y

861 = -3y

Divide each side by -3

861/-3 = -3y/-3

-287 = y

Now we need to find x

x = 123+y

x = 123+ -287

x = -164


The numbers could also be 164 and 287

The difference is 287-164 = 123

And the ratio is 164/287 = 4/7

Dmitrij [34]
We have to calculate the amount of money Peter will have in his account after 5 years. Formula for the amount after t years with interest compounded continuously : A = P * e^(r t ). We know that r = 0.06; t = 5; e = 2.71 and P = $8,000. A = 8,000 * 2.718^( 0.06 * 5 ) = 8,000 * 2,718^( 0.3 ) = 8,000 * 1.3488158 = 10,798.53. Answer:<span> B. $10,798.53. </span>
