Answer:

The equation is y= (-6/7)x - 10/7

Step-by-step explanation:

y=(slope)x + (y-intercept)

Usually I find the y-intercept first, but in the graph provided the y-intercept doesn't seem to be at exactly -1, instead i'd guess to be -1.1. But thats a guess so I cant do anything with that.

Instead lets start with slope, the slope formula is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), as we are given the 2 points (-4,2) and (3,-4) we simply plug in those numbers to get the slope: (-4-2) / (3 - (-4) ) = -6/7 which is the slope. This number is negative which makes sense as the line is going down.

Now the equation is this:

y= (-6/7)x + b

To find the y-intercept we pick one of the two provided points (which one we pick doesn't matter), i'll pick the (-4,2). We plug that into the current equation: y= (-6/7)x - b  ->  2= (-6/7)*-4 - b. And solve for b, the y intercept. We get the y-intercept to be -10/7. Which in decimal is -1.42 which is close to -1.1.

Resulting with the answer:

y= (-6/7)x - 10/7

Noelle ran 4 1/2 miles in the morning and 3 1/4 miles in the evening. How far did Noelle run that day?
KIM [24]
You just add all the numbers together:
3 1/8+ 4 1/2+ 4 1/4
=25/8+9/2+17/4
=25/8+36/8+34/8
=95/8
=11 7/8

Ugh.. did you type in the numbers correctly? My guess would be it was meant to be B tho :)

The base of an isosceles triangle is one and a half times the length of the other two sides.A smaller triangle has a perimeter t
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Perimeter of the smaller triangle = 1.75x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two equal sides of an isosceles triangle = x

Therefore, length of the base = (1\frac{1}{2})x

Perimeter of this isosceles triangle = x + x + (1\frac{1}{2})x

                                                          = 2x + (1+\frac{1}{2})x

                                                          = 2x + x + \frac{x}{2}

                                                          = \frac{5x}{2}

Since, smaller triangle has a perimeter that is half the perimeter of the larger triangle,

Length of each corresponding side of smaller triangle will be half of the larger triangle.

Length of sides of the smaller triangle = \frac{x}{2},\frac{x}{2},(1\frac{1}{2})\frac{x}{2}

Perimeter of the smaller triangle = \frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{2}+(1\frac{1}{2})\frac{x}{2}

                                                      = x + \frac{x}{2}+\frac{x}{4}

                                                      = \frac{3}{2}x+\frac{x}{4}

                                                      = \frac{6}{4}x+\frac{x}{4}

                                                      = \frac{7}{4}x

                                                      = 1.75x

Therefore, expression that represents the perimeter of the smaller triangle is (1.75x)

If a 10-pound turkey costs $20.42.how much does a 21-pound turkey cost
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

$42.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create a proportion using the following setup:

cost/pounds=cost/pounds

We know that it costs $20.42 for a 10 pound turkey.

$20.42/10 pounds= cost/pounds

We don't know how much a 21 pound turkey costs, so we can say that it costs $x for a 21 pound turkey.

$20.42/ 10 pounds= $x/ 21 pounds

20.42/10=x/21

We want to find x, by getting x by itself.

x is being divided by 21. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides by 21.

21*(20.42/10)=(x/21)*21

21* 20.42/10=x

21*2.042=x

42.882=x

Round to the nearest cent, or hundredth.

42.88=x

x= $42.88

A 21 pound turkey costs $42.88

Jenny picked 25 roses. she gave away 10 roses. What percent of the roses did Jenny give away?
diamong [38]
Divide 10 by 25, which would get you 4. Move the decimal over two to the left, because you wanted a percentage.

Jenny gave away 40% of the roses.
