1 answer:

6 0

Slope of a line passing through two given points
= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

For m=3, and substituting coordinates,
3=(1-y)/(4-1)
solve for y
1-y=3*3=9
y=1-9=-8

Answer: y=-8

$\text {x - coordinate = } \bigg( 5\dfrac{1}{2} + 3\dfrac{3}{4} \bigg) \div 2$

$\text {x - coordinate = } \bigg( 5\dfrac{2}{4} + 3\dfrac{3}{4} \bigg) \div 2$

$\text {x - coordinate = } 8\dfrac{5}{4} \div 2$

$\text {x - coordinate = }\dfrac{37}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{2}$

$\text {x - coordinate = }\dfrac{37}{8}$

$\text {x - coordinate = } 4\dfrac{5}{8}$

$\text {y - coordinate = } \bigg( -4\dfrac{1}{4} - 1\dfrac{1}{4} \bigg) \div 2$

$\text {y - coordinate = } -5\dfrac{2}{4} \div 2$

$\text {y - coordinate = } -\dfrac{22}{4} \times \dfrac{1}{2}$

$\text {y - coordinate = } -\dfrac{11}{4}}$

$\text {y - coordinate = } -2\dfrac{3}{4}}$

$\text {The coordinate is }\bigg( 4\dfrac{5}{8}, -2\dfrac{3}{4}} \bigg)$

This questionn please

nasty-shy [4]

Let X be the total number of guests
$\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{5x}{12} + 23 \\ \frac{12x + 15x + 828}{36} \\ \frac{17x + 828}{36}$
when X =1
(17+828)/36
845/36=23.5
am sorry but the question is not that clear
pls mark as brainliest

A student theatre charges $9.50 per ticket. The theater has already sold 70 tickets. Write and solve an inequality that represen

Leona [35]

To make the inequality, we will use the ≥ sign to determine how many more tickets we will need. Before we write the inequality, let's see how much money was already made by the present tickets. 70 x 9.50 = $665.
We can write the inequality as $665 + $9.50t ≥ $1000 where t is the number of tickets sold. Now we can solve
$665 + $9.50t ≥ $1000, subtract 665
$9.50t ≥ $335. Now isolate the t by divide 9.50 to both sides
t ≥ 35.26 which we can round up to 36 because you cant sell 35.26 tickets.
So you need at least 36 more tickets to earn at least $1000
