7 0

(-3,5)(1,-15)
slope = (-15 - 5) / (1 - (-3) = -20/4 = -5

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -5
use either of ur points...(-3,5)...x = -3 and y = 5
now we sub and find b, the y int
5 = -5(-3) + b
5 = 15 + b
5 - 15 = b
-10 = b
so ur equation is : y = -5x - 10....or 5x + y = -10

Harrison has 30 cds in his music collection. If 40% of the cds are country and 30% are pop, how many are other types of music

Pavel [41]

Well you have to find out how many cd is 40% and 30%
30% = 30x.3=9
40% = 30x.4=16
now add 16 and 9
16+9=25 now subtract 25 from 30 and see that you have 5 cd of a different type of music to find that as a % divide 5 by 35 to get .14 I rounded it to the nearest hundreth now move the decimal over 2 spots to get 14%

Solve for x in the triangle above

faust18 [17]

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle must always add up to 180.

2x + 2x + 3x - 30 = 180

Add 30 to both sides to seperate variables.

2x + 2x + 3x = 210
