Answer:

(A) \boxed{\bold{y=\frac{3}{7}x+\frac{2}{7}}}

(B) \boxed{\bold{2 \ = \ \frac{3}{7} * \ 4 \ + \ \frac{2}{7}  }}

Explanation:

(A) Slope: y = mx + b

m = 3/7

b = 2/7

Slope = \bold{\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}}

\bold{\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-3,\:-1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(4,\:2\right)}

M = \bold{\frac{2-\left(-1\right)}{4-\left(-3\right)}: \ \frac{3}{7} }

Y intercept

\bold{y=\frac{3}{7}x+b}

Plug in \bold{\left(-3,\:-1\right)\mathrm{:\:}\quad \:x=-3,\:y=-1}

\bold{-1=\frac{3}{7}\left(-3\right)+b}

Isolate B

\bold{-1=\frac{3}{7}\left(-3\right)+b}

b = \bold{\frac{2}{7} }

(B) 4 = x, 2 = y

2 = 3/7 * 4 + 2/7

Answer:

m=3/7, y=3/7x+2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the slope is:

     y₂-y₁

m= --------

      x₂-x₁

Our first coordinate pair is:

(-3,-1) . -3 is our x₁ and -1 is our y₁ .

Our second coordinate pair is:

(4,2) . 4 is our x₂ and 2 y₂ .

We can substitute our numbers into the original equation and simplify:

     2-(-1)      3

m= ------- = -----

     4-(-3)     7

Ok, now that we know our slope, we can find the equation...

Substitute in your slope and any coordinate pair into y=mx+b: (I'll be using (4,2) as my coordinate pair.)

2=(3/7)(4)+b

Then solve:

(3/7) x (4/1) = 12/7

2=12/7+b

2/1-12/7=b

2/7=b

Now that we have our slope and our y-intercept, we can FINALLY make an equation:

y=3/7x+2/7

That's a lot of work, but I hope I helped!

                                                     :)

Kx=y-m
x=(y-m)/k
Note that this is also standard linear form, x=y/k-m/k where slope=1/k and x intercept is -m/k.

Answer:

  • Tyler
  • 2 hundredths of a mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is a little difficult to read, but we note that there are 6 grid lines between times that are 2 minutes apart. So, each grid line stands for 2/6 = 1/3 minute.

At the 1-mile mark, the graph crosses 1 grid line above 8 minutes, indicating it takes Tyler 8 1/3 minutes to run 1 mile.

Then in 10 minutes, Tyler will run ...

  distance = speed · time = 1 mile/(8 1/3 min) · 10 min

  = 1/(25/3)·10 = 10·3/25 = 30/25 = 1.2 . . . . miles

__

The equation tells you that Elena runs each mile in 8.5 minutes. To see how far she runs in 10 minutes, we can solve ...

  10 = 8.5x

  x = 10/8.5 ≈ 1.18 . . . . miles

So, Tyler runs farther in 10 minutes by a distance of ...

  1.20 -1.18 = 0.02 . . . . miles

Solve 765/14 and write your answer in terms of a mixed number (please use this format: 75 3/5). *
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The answer is 54 9/14

Step-by-step explanation:

what u do is this

#1.  765 divided by 14 which equals 54.64285714. Don't worry about the numbers after the decimal.

Then u do 65-54= 9 so u have 54 9/14

to check yourself just do 14 times 54= 756 + 9 = 765
