Answer:

The equation which describe this function is 5x + 11y = 37

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>To find the slope</u>

slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

slope = (13 - 2)/(-2 - 3) = 11/-5

<u>To find the equation</u>

(x - 3)/(y - 2) = -11/5

5(x - 3) = -11(y - 2)

5x -15  = -11y + 22

5x + 11y = 22 + 15

5x + 11y = 37

Therefore the equation which describe this function is

5x + 11y = 37

Answer:

y = \frac{-11}{5} x + \frac{43}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear function is defined by  y = ax+b

         where a and b are constants and (x,y ) are variables given as point

using point (3,2) that is plugging x =3 and y =2 ,we

                      2 = 3a+b .............  equation(1)

  likewise using point (-2,13) and plugging x =-2 and y =13 ,we get

                  13 = -2a+b ..........  equation(2)

      Solving the equation   (1) and 2

          \left \{ {{2=3a+b} \atop {13=-2a+b}} \right.

          subtracting equation 2 from equation 1

             3a+b = 2

             -2a+b = 13

__-_______________

         we have  5a =  -11

                          a= \frac{-11}{5}

plugging a=\frac{-11}{5} in equation (1),we get

3(\frac{-11}{5}) +b =2

b =  2 -3(\frac{-11}{5})

b = 2+\frac{33}{5}

b=\frac{43}{5}

therefore equation is obtained by plugging

 a =\frac{-11}{5} and b = \frac{43}{5}

we get  equation as

    y = \frac{-11}{5} x + \frac{43}{5}

Please help don't guess
12345 [234]

So, just divide:

52.50 / 6 = 8.75

This means that she earns $8.75 an hour.

If this is her hourly salary, then multiply 8.75 x 11

8.75 x 11 = 96.25

So, if Paula works for 11 hours,  she will earn $96.25!

It’s only one question plz help (DON’T GUESS NO LINKS) please I will do anything there is a part two I’m struggling and this is
pshichka [43]

Answer:

For question 1 it's B

For question 2 it's C

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>For question 1, you have to apply the "Triangle Inequality Theorem"</u>

A+B > C

B+C > A

A+C > B

Let's say that A=22, B=17, C= 14

22+17 > 14       True

17+14 > 22       True

22+14 > 17       True

Therefore, the answer is B

<u>For question 2, you apply the rule of the sum of the triangles which is 180°</u>

70+70+? = 180

140+? = 180

? = 40

Therefore, it's C

Point B has coordinates ​(3​,2​). The​ x-coordinate of point A is −6. The distance between point A and point B is 15 units. What
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Distance between two points= √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

D= 15units

Let "k" be the y-coordinate of A

A(-6,k)

B(3,2)

15= √(3--6)²+(2-k)²

Taking square of both sides to eliminate the square root.

15²=(9)²+(2-k)²

225=81+4-4k+k²

k²-4k - 140=0

Using Quadratic Formula to evaluate

k= 14 or k=-10

The Possible coordinates of A are

(-6,14) or (-6,-10)
