Answer:
D or answer 4 y=-5/2x+7
Step-by-step explanation:
Well we can first start of by finding the y-intercept.
Note that when x=0, you can find your y-intercept.
Knowing this, and looking at the table, 7 is the y-intercept because when y=7, x=0.
So we can eliminate choices 'a' and 'c,' or answers 1 and 3, because they have the y-intercept as -7, when it's just 7.
Please know that in the equation:
y = mx + b
y = y-coordinate or any given point
mx = slope
b = y-intercept
Now we must find slope
To find the slope we need to do:
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) or rise/run
The two coordinates I choose to use is (0, 7) and (6, -8).
(-8 - 7) / (6 - 0) = -5/2
-5/2 is the slope
Finally, look for an equation that has 7 as the y-intercept and -5/2 as the slope.
Answer: D or answer 4
Answer:
When we have a discount of X% of the original price, the new price is calculated as:
New price = (original price) - (original price)*(X%/100%)
In our case, let's define:
P = original price of the fishing pole
f = price of the fishing pole after the discount
X% = 20%
Then the equation for the price of the fishing pole is:
f = P - P*(20%/100%) = P - P*0.2 = P*(1 - 0.2) = P*0.8
f = 0.8*P
This means that the price after the discount is 0.8 times the original price.
The formula for the quadratic formula is x (c in this case) = (-b(+/-)√(b²-4ac))/2a
This is used for an equation in standard quadratic form: ax² + bx + c = 0
1.) Put it in the correct form, if not already in it.
Ex. c² + 6c + 8 = 0
2.) Identify each part of the equation:
a = 1 (the leading coefficient), b = 6 (the coefficient in front of the second variable), c = 8
3.) Plug in each variable answer
c = (-6(+/-)√(6²-4(1)(8))/2(1)
4.) Simplify
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-(4*8))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(36-32))/2
c = (-6(+/-)√(4))/2
c = (-6(+/-)2)/2
*Here, the equation splits in two. It becomes:
c = (-6+2)/2 AND c = (-6-2)/2
*Simplify again:
c = -4/2 AND c = -8/2
c = -2 AND c = -4
The answers c = -2 and c = -4 would solve the given equation.
Hope this helps! :)
