Mathematics

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{8} x + \frac{41}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

To calculate the slope use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 7)

m = \frac{7-4}{5+3} = \frac{3}{8}, hence

y = \frac{3}{8} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (5, 7 ), then

7 = \frac{15}{8} + c ⇒ c = 7 - \frac{15}{8} = \frac{41}{8}

y = \frac{3}{8} x + \frac{41}{8} ← equation in slope-intercept form

What is the solution to log (9x)-log2^3= 3?
olga_2 [115]

For this case we have that by definition of properties logarithm is met:

log_ {b} (x) -log_ {b} (y) = log_ {b} (\frac {x} {y})

So, rewriting the expression we have:

log (\frac {9x} {2 ^ 3}) = 3\\log (\frac {9x} {8}) = 3

By definition of logarithm we have to:

log_ {b} (x) = yis equivalent tob ^ y = x

So:

10 ^ 3 = \frac {9x} {8}\\9x = 8 * 10 ^ 3\\9x = 8 * 1000\\9x = 8000\\x = \frac {8000} {9}

ANswer:

x = \frac {8000} {9}

Yao Xin puts 3/10 liters of potting soil in each pot for planting flowers. She has 17/3 liters of potting soil. How many pots ca
kari74 [83]

For this case defining variables we have:

x: total amount of liters of potting soil.

y: number of liters of potting soil in each pot.

We have then to find the number of pots we use the following expression:

N = \frac{x}{y}

Substituting values we have:

N = \frac{\frac{17}{3}}{\frac{3}{10}}

Rewriting we have:

N = \frac{170}{9}

N = 18.8

Rounding to the previous whole we have:

N = 18

Answer:

Yao Xin can fill 18 pots
