Write an equation for the line whose slope is 7/2 and which contains the point (-12,-9)

Mathematics

Slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b    "m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0)


Since you know m = 7/2, plug it into the equation

y = 7/2x + b  

To find "b", plug in (-12,-9) into the equation

y = 7/2x + b

-9 = 7/2(-12) + b

-9 = -84/2 + b

-9 = -42 + b     Add 42 on both sides

33 = b


y=\frac{7}{2}x+33




(if you're not suppose to use slope-intercept form)

Point-slope form:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)


m = 7/2

(x₁ , y₁) = (-12,-9)

Plug this into the equation

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - (-9) = 7/2(x - (-12))

y+9=\frac{7}{2}(x+12)

Answer:

You should go with the 1st, because it's cheaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

1st plan:

30$ which include 75 mins of free calls and 100 free text messages

25 more mins * 10¢ /min(0.1$/min) = 2.5$

You will pay 32.5$

2nd plan:

(calls)100*0.3$=30$

(text messages)100 * 0.1$=10$

30+10 = 40$
