Answer: y=2x-1
We know that the equation of a line is y = mx + b, where m is the gradient and b is the y-intercept.
First to find the gradient, we use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1.
x1 and y1 being the first set of coordinates (2,3) and x2 and y2 being the second set (4,7)
Now we sub in:
m=7-3/4-2
m=4/2
m=2
This is our gradient and we can put it into the equation: y=2x+b
Now we find the y-intercept (b). Since the y-intercept isn’t shown, we can sub in the coordinates to find it.
y=2x+b
Sub (2,3)
3=2(2)+b
3=4+b
-1=b
Sub (4,7)
7=2(4)+b
7=8+b
-1=b
Subbing in both coordinates gives us -1 as the y-intercept, so the finished equation is: y=2x-1

Answer:
15625/4096
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence is geometric with first term 1 and common ratio 5/4. The general term is ...
an = a1·r^(n-1)
an = 1·(5/4)^(n-1)
Then the 7th term is ...
a7 = (5/4)^(7-1) = 15625/4096

Step-by-step explanation:
(36)*(
)=24
I assume you mean one that is not rational, such as √2. In such a case, you make a reasonable estimate of it's position, and then label the point that you plot.
For example, you know that √2 is greater than 1 and less than 2, so put the point at about 1½ (actual value is about 1.4142).
For √3, you know the answer is still less than 4, but greater than √2. If both of those points are required to be plotted just make sure you put it in proper relation, otherwise about 1¾ is plenty good (actual value is about 1.7321).
If you are going to get into larger numbers, it's not a bad idea to just learn a few roots. Certainly 2, 3, and 5 (2.2361) and 10 (3.1623) shouldn't be too hard.
Then for a number like 20, which you can quickly workout is √4•√5 or 2√5, you could easily guess about 4½ (4.4721).
They're usually not really interested in your graphing skills on this sort of exercise. They just want you to demonstrate that you have a grasp of the magnitude of irrational numbers.
