M = Monthly Allowance.

N = 5/7 of M (Monthly Allowance)

5/7 of 5/7 of M = 9.60

5/7 * 5/7 * M = 9.60

Rearrange the formula to find M

M = 9.60 / (5/7) / (5/7) = 18.816

<h2>Monthly Allowance = $18.816</h2>

Please help! Find the equation of the line (graph provided in attached picture) Use exact numbers. y =_ x+_ ( _ represent blanks
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{4}x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is given as y = mx + b

Where,

m = slope of the line = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

b = y-intercept, which is the value at the point where the line intercepts the y-axis. At this point, x = 0.

Let's find m and b to derive the equation for the line.

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Use the coordinate pair of any two points on the line. Let's use the following,

(0, -2) = (x_1, y_1) => on the line, when x = 0, y = -2

(4, 1) = (x_2, y_2) => on the line, when x = 4, y = 1

Plug in the values and solve for m

m = \frac{1 - (-2)}{4 - 0}

m = \frac{1 + 2}{4}

m = \frac{3}{4}

b = -2 (the line intercepts the y-axis at this point)

Our equation would be =>

y = mx + b

y = \frac{3}{4}x + (-2)

y = \frac{3}{4}x - 2

What is the converse of the linear pairs theorem
guapka [62]
<span>If you know the Linear pair Theorem, the converse can be easily obtained by switching the condition and the conclusion. For example, If it is raining, then the outside is wet. Converse: If the outside is wet, then it is raining. (It is not always true.)</span>
