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!

                                                     :)

notsponge [240]

Answer: Yes, and she will have 4 cups leftover


Step-by-step explanation:

1 Quart = 4 cups

Convert the quarts: 7 * 4 = 28

Find the amount of cups needed in total: 12* 2 = 24

Subtract to see if possible: 28- 24 = 4

Graph the solution set of this inequality: 5x − 4y > 20.
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the inequality 5x − 4y > 20 for y, as follows:  Subtract 5x from both sides, obtaining:

-4y > 20 - 5x;

Then divide all terms by -4:

y    < -5 +(5/4)x, where the direction of the inequality sign has been reversed because of division by a negative quantity.

Temporarily replace the < symbol with =     obtaining    y = -5 +(5/4)x.  Now choose at least three x values and find the corresponding y values.  For example:

 x      y = -5 +(5/4)x  

 0          -5

 4            0

 -8         -15

Now plot these three points (0, -5), (4, 0) and (-8, -15).  Draw a dashed line through them.  Because of the < symbol in y    < -5 +(5/4)x, shade the area underneath the dashed line.
