1 answer:

8 0

For
ax+by=c
slope=-a/b

we have
-6x+1y=-4
slope=-6/-1=6
slope is 6

yint is where x=0

-6(0)+y=-4
0+y=-4
y=-4
yint is at y=-4 or (0,-4)

Write the equation of the line with a slope of 1/6 that contains (12,-7)

tatiyna

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{12}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies \cfrac{1}{6} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-7)=\cfrac{1}{6}(x-12) \\\\\\ y+7=\cfrac{1}{6}x-2\implies y=\cfrac{1}{6}x-9$

How to calculate the percentage?

How to calculate percentage of a number. Use the percentage formula: P% * X = Y

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: P% * X = Y.
P is 10%, X is 150, so the equation is 10% * 150 = Y.
Convert 10% to a decimal by removing the percent sign and dividing by 100: 10/100 = 0.10.
