The point-slope form of a line is:

y-y1=m(x-x1),  where m=slope and (x1,y1) is any point on the line

First we need to find the slope, which is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(4--1)/(8-2)

m=5/6 and we can use either point, I'll use (8,4)

y-4=(5/6)(x-8)

That is your equation in point-slope form.

Now the standard equation of a line is ax+by=c

y-4=(5/6)(x-8)  we can perform the indicated multiplication on the right side

y-4=(5x-40)/6  multiply both sides by 6

6y-24=5x-40  add 24 to both sides

6y=5x-16  subtract 5x from both sides

-5x+6y=-16  and by convention, the standard equation of a line should be expressed with a positive coefficient for x, so multiply both sides by -1

5x-6y=16

The expression i/pt represents the rate of instrest being charged if a loan of p dollars for t years required i dollars in intre
zysi [14]

Answer:

7.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

<em>Formula for Rate of interest </em>R:

R=\dfrac{i}{Pt}

Where i is the rate of interest.

P dollars is the loan and

t years is the time for which interest is to be paid

P =\$690\\t=3\ years\\i=\$151.11

To find:

R=?

Solution:

Putting the given values in the formula:

R=\dfrac{151.11}{690 \times 3}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{151.11}{2070}\\\Rightarrow R=0.073

Multiply the above value with 100 to find the percentage.

i.e.

R=0.073\times 100 = \bold{7.3\%}

Therefore, the answer is <em>7.3%</em>

Find the value of x and the value of y
erik [133]
The triangle is an isosceles triangle with exactly two congruent angles.
Since the two 45-deg angles are congruent, their opposite sides are also congruent. That makes y = 5.

This triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle. In a 45-45-90 triangle, the legs are congruent and the hypotenuse is sqrt(2) times the length of the legs.
The hypotenuse has length x, so x = 5 * sqrt(2) = 5sqrt(2)

Answer: B. x = 5sqrt(2), y = 5
