I am not sure about point slope, but I can find an equation in slope-intercept form and convert it, so
y=mx+b, m=slope
slope=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
we have points
(4,5)
(-3,-1)
(x,y)
x1=4
y1=5
x2=-3
y2=-1
subsitute
(5-(-1))/(4-(-3))=(5+1)/(4+3)=6/7
y=6/7+b
sybsitute and solve for b
(4,5)
x=4
y=5
5=6/7(4)+b
5=24/7+b
5=35/7
subtract 24/7 from both sides
11/7=b
y=6/7x+11/7
convert to the point slope form and find equivilent fraction
since the question asks for 2 answers that are correct and only 2 of the equations have slope of 6/7 I can guess that the answers are B and C
Answer: the player answered 30 questions correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of questions that the player answered correctly.
Let y represent the number of questions that the player answered incorrectly.
The number of questions that the player answered is 40. It means that
x + y = 40- - - - - - - - - - -1
The score on the trivia game is obtained by subtracting the number of incorrect answers from twice the number of correct answers. If the player obtained a score of 50, It means that
2x - y = 50
y = 2x - 50
Substituting y = 2x - 50 into equation 1, it becomes
x + 2x - 50 = 40
3x - 50 = 40
3x = 40 + 50 = 90
x = 90/3
x = 30
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of bushels of apples he picks (B) would be times by 5 as he would earn that much per bushel to get his pay (P)
15/x=75/100
15/x=3/4
times 4x both sides
4*15=3x
60=3x
divide both sides by 3
20=x
Answer:
-3(4 - 6x)
-12 +18x
=18x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiple the negative 3 with positive 4 to get negative 12.
An you also multiple the negative 3 with negative 6x (a negative multiple a negative changes into positive) giving you 18x as your answer
