What is the equatipn of the linear graph? (-4, 6). (1, -9)

Mathematics

dusya [7]3 years ago

Answer:

y = -3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

first, find the slope

(-4, 6)

(1, -9)

remember the equation for the slope

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}} }

insert given points

x_{1} = -4\\y_{1} = 6\\\\x_{2} = 1\\y_{2} = -9

((-9) - (6)) / ((1) - (-4))

simplify

( -9 - 6) / (1 + 4)

= -15/ 5

= -3

now insert it into the equation of the line

remember, the equation of the line is

y = mx + b

where "m" is the slope

and "b" is the y-intercept

to find "b", you just have to plug in a point that is found on the line

we know that (-4, 6) and (1. -9) is found on the line, so let's just use (-4, 6) for this problem

y = mx + b

substitute in the slope of this line

y = -3x + b

now substitute in the given points

6 = -3 * -4 + b

and solve it like any algebra problem, by inverse operations and simplifying

6 = 12 + b

-12      -12

-6 = b

so the equation of the line is

y = -3x -6

3. There are 124 acorns laying on the ground in your yard, it is predicted that the number of acorns will
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

507,409

Step-by-step explanation:

if every 5 days the number quadruples (x4), and we want to know how many acorns fall after 30 days, we can divide 30 by 5 so we only have to calculate for the amount of time the take to quadruple.

30 ÷ 5 = 6

so we only have to quadruple the acorns 6 times.

if we start off with 124 acorns, this is what it will look like:

Day 0: 124 acorns

Day 5: 124 x 4 = 496 acorns

Day 10: 496 x 4 = 1984 acorns

Day 15: 1984 x 4 = 7936 acorns

etc... until day 30.

Day 30: 507904 acorns

I hope this was helpful :-)

Will give BRAINLEST :)
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

This explanation mostly depends on what you're learning right now. The first way would be to convert this matrix to a system of equations like this.

g + t + k = 90

g + 2t - k = 55

-g - t + 3k = 30

Then you solve using normal methods of substitution or elimination. It seems to me that elimination is the quickest method.

g + t + k = 90

-g - t + 3k = 30

____________

0 + 0 + 4k = 120

4k = 120

k = 30

No you can plug this into the first two equations

g + t + (30) = 90

g + t = 60

and

g + 2t - (30) = 55

g + 2t = 85

now use elimination again by multiplying the first equation by -1

g + 2t = 85

-g - t = -60

_________

0 + t = 25

t = 25

Now plug those both back into one of the equations. I'll just do the first one.

g + (25) + (30) = 90

g = 35

Therefore, we know that Ted spent the least amount of time on the computer.

The second method is using matrix reduction and getting the matrix in the row echelon form, therefore solving using the gauss jordan method. If you would like me to go through this instead, please leave a comment.

4. Mariana receives a $20 gift card for
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

inequality-    1.29m <20

maximum number of songs- 15 songs

Step-by-step explanation:

For the inequality, you see that she only has $20 so whatever she buys has to be below that so use the less than sign. You also see that each song is worth $1.29 so 1.29m. For the maximum number of songs, you divide 20 by 1.29 and just ignore the remainder.
