Answer:

y - 4 = 5(x - 7) or y = 5x - 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form: <em>y = mx + b</em> (m = slope, b = y-intercept)

Point-slope form: <em>y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)</em> ((x₁, y₁) = known point, m = slope)

1. Slope: perpendicular to -1/5 --> 5 (negative reciprocal)

2. Insert knowns into equation: y - 4 = 5(x - 7)

3. Turn into point-slope form (assuming that is what we are looking for):

Multiply: <em>y - 4 = 5x - 35</em>

Subtract: y = 5x - 31

antoniya [11.8K]

to get an A, she needs >=160 points and she already has 125 points

let 'x' be the number of points on the last part of her project then

125 + x >= 160

x >= 160 - 125

x >= 35

Sarah needs at least 35 points on the last part of her project.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute 4x in for the y

2x^2-4x=0

Factor out GCF 2x

artcher [175]

This is a problem of fundamental counting principle. In a sequence of events, the total possible number of ways all events can performed is the product of the possible number of ways each individual event can be performed. So here there is one car in each place so there 4 possible cars to get the 1st place, 3 possible car for the 2nd place, 2 possible cars for 3rd place and 1 for the 4th place. The 4x3x2x1 = 24 different order
