21. 0.25x - 1.25 - 3x + 2 = -2.75x + 0.75
22. 15/100= 0.15. 0.15•64,000= 9,600. The answer is D.
23. 1,200-300= 9,000. 1,200+300= 15,000. 9,000/15,000= 3/5. 3/5= 0.6. 60% of the building is aboveground.
24. The patterson seems to be the y=18x and when you plug 7 in to the equation, you get 126, not 128, so D is the answer.
The answer is B, or y - 6 = 3/4 (x - 4). To put (-4, 6); m = 3/4 in point-slope form, you first start with the point-slope form equation which is y - k = m (x - h). The ordered pair that it wants you to put in is (-4, 6). To figure out where the ordered pair goes, you replace the variables (h, k) with (-4, 6). The h will always be the point on the
x-axis and the k will always will be the point on the y-axis. Putting these together, you now get y - 6 = m (x - 4). As the same in slope-intercept form, or y=mx+b form, the slope in this equation is m. In this equation, m = 3/4. So, the equation in point-slope form is y - 6 = 3/4 (x - 4).
Write the givens first, then state AED is isosceles so angles A and D are also equal, and so on
(-2,5)(9,-6)
slope(m) = (-6-5) / (9 - (-2) = -11/11 = -1
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1
(-2,5)...x = -2 and y = 5
now we sub and solve for b, the y int
5 = -1(-2) + b
5 = 2 + b
5 - 2 = b
3 = b
so ur equation in slope intercept form is : y = -x + 3
