3/4=x/60 so you divide 60 by 4 and get 15x3=45/60
Answer:
B
Explanation:
The y intercept can be read directly off of the graph, and is where the line intersects the y of the graph.
The slope (gradient) can be determined by using the equation y=mx+c, where we can substitute in the y intercept and an x and y value on the line.
y=mx+4
(2;0) is a point on the line, it is the coordinates of the x intercept (y intercept will work as well)
0=m(2)+4
m=-2
Hey there!!
How do we find the equation of a line ?
Ans : We take the slope and the y - intercept and get them together.
How do you find slopes?
Ans - In order to find slop, we will need to use the slop formula which is
( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
The two points shown in the above question are
( 4 , -8 ) and ( 8 , 5 )
y₂ = 5 , y₁ = -8 and x₂ = 8 , x₁ = 4
Now plug in the values:
( 5 + 8 ) / ( 8 - 5 )
13 / 3
Hence, the slope is 13/3
The basic formula : y = mx + b
Where b is the y-intercept and m is the slope.
We have found the slope, hence, the formula would become
... y = 13/3 x + b
Now take a coordinate and substitute it .
I will take ( 8 , 5 )
x = 8 and y = 5
Now plug in the values
... 5 = 13/3 × 5 + b
... 5 = 65/3 + b
Subtract 65/3 on both sides
... 5 - 65/3 = b
... -50/3 = b
Hence, the y-intercept is -50/3
Now plug in all the values to get the total equation...
The final equation : y = 13x/3 - 50/3
... y = 13x - 50 / 3
Hope my answer helps!!
We should find the mean number of the tests.
This would be done like: (23+24+25)/3 = 24
After that, you should find the percentage or fraction like this 24/50
Then use the fraction as an estimate like this:
(24/50) * 3250 = 1560
The correct answer is 1560.
