Answer:
y = - 2x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (8, - 9) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, 15)
m = 
= 
= - 2, thus
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (8, - 9), then
- 9 = - 16 + c ⇒ c = - 9 + 16 = 7
y = - 2x + 7 ← equation of line
Write the two fractions as improper fractions
4 2/3 is 14/3
<span>4 1/5</span> is 21/5
rewrite
14/3 <span>÷ 21/5
since it is pretty complicated to divide two fractions,
you change it to multiplication
keep the first fraction, change the division sign to multiplication, then flip the second fraction
(you can remember KEEP, CHANGE, FLIP whenever dealing with division of fractions :) )
14/3 * 5/21
multiply across
(14 * 5) / ( 3 * 21)
</span>70/ 63
simplify to 10/9
this can be written as 1 1/9
Hope this helps
Answer:
option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
A) The with is 8 inches. You would do 32/4 to get your answer
B) The perimeter is 12. P=l+w so P=8+4 which is 12.(P stands for perimeter
When you are checking your answers, your formula should read out as 9(2.222) - 8 = 12, which is simply filing in the x value that you calculated (it comes out to 11.998 which is correct). You wrote it out as 9(2.22) - 8 = -6, which is why your checking process was incorrect
