If m<1=6x+50 and m<2=4x+40 find x

Angle 1 and 2 are supplementary angles and need to equal 180 degrees

so angle 1 + angle 2 = 180:

6x+50 + 4x+40 = 180

combine like terms:

10x + 90 = 180

subtract 90 from each side:

10x = 90

divide both sides by 10

x = 9

Rida and elisa are each paid by the hour. rida worked 5 1\2. hours and earned 77. elisa worked 3 3\4 HOURS AND EARNED 60. WHOSE

skad [1K]

Rida:
5 1/2 :77
5.5 : 77
Divide both sides by 5.5 to get $/hour:
1:14

Elisa:
3 3/4:60
3.75:60
Divide both sides by 3.75 to get $/hour:
1:16

16 is bigger than 14 so Elisa earns more.

Hope this helps :)

Find the slope and y-intercept for the two linear functions. Linear Functions Identify the slope of the line given in the table:

Natalija [7]

ANSWER

See explanation

EXPLANATION

The table contains these two points (-4,-3) and (2,-4.5)

The slope of this line is given by;

$m = \frac{rise}{run}$

$m = \frac{ - 4.5 - - 3}{2 - - 4} = \frac{ - 1.5}{6}$

$m = - \frac{1}{4}$

The y-intercept can be obtained by finding the equation of the line in the form:

$y = mx + c$

We plug in the slope and the point (-4,-3) to find c.

This implies that,

$- 3 = - \frac{1}{4} \times - 4 + c$

$- 3 = 1 + c$

$c = - 3 - 1 = - 4$

Hence the y-intercept is -4.

The given line is

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + 1$

This is already in the slope intercept form:

The slope is

$m = \frac{3}{2}$

The y-intercept is c=1
