Answer:

m=4

Step-by-step explanation:

given equation is

y-5=m(x-2)

put given point in above equation

1-5=m(1-2)

-4=m(-1)

-4=-m

m=4

Answer:

m = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 1, y = 1 , that is(1,1) into the equation

1 - 5 = m(1 - 2)

- 4 = - m ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

m = 4

Direct variation is when $\dfrac{y}{x}$ is the same for each coordinate.

Indirect variation is when x · y is the same for each coordinate.

11. Answer: Direct Variation

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin {array}{c||c|c|c|c|c}x&12&18&23&29&34\\y&132&198&253&319&374\\\\\dfrac{y}{x}&\dfrac{132}{12}=11&\dfrac{198}{18}=11&\dfrac{253}{23}=11&\dfrac{319}{29}=11&\dfrac{374}{34}=11\\\end{array} \\\\\\\text{The coordinates x and y show a direct variation.}$

12. Answer: Indirect Variation

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin {array}{c||c|c|c|c|c}x&4&6&8&8.4&12\\y&21&14&10.5&10&7\\x\cdot y&4\cdot 21=84&6\cdot 14=84&8\cdot 10.5=84&8.4\cdot 10=84&12\cdot 7=84\\\end{array} \\\\\\\text{The coordinates x and y show an indirect variation.}$

What is the GCF of 30 and 49 ?

horsena [70]

The GCF of 30 and 49 is 1.

Steps to find GCF: Find the prime factorization of 30
30 = 2 × 3 × 5 Find the prime factorization of 49
49 = 7 × 7 Multiply all the common factors obtained in steps i) and ii) above to find the GCF:

GCF = 1

For accounting purposes, the value of assets (land, buildings, equipment) in a business are depreciated at a set rate per year.

zloy xaker [14]

This is exponential decay of the form:

f=ir^t, f=final value, i=initial value, r=rate, t=time in this case:

V(t)=408000((100-18)/100)^t

V(t)=408000(0.82)^t so

Vo=408000 and b=0.82

....

V(8)=408000(0.82)^8

V(8)=$83400.95 to nearest cent
