Write in slope intercept form an equation of the line that passes through (-2,5),(-1,1)

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

y=-4x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the following two points: (-2,5) and (-1,1)

We want to write the equation of the line that passes through these two lines in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

First, let's find the slope

The formula for the slope (m) calculated from 2 points is $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ , where $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ are points

We have everything we need to calculate the slope, but let's label the value of the points to avoid any confusion

$x_1=-2\\y_1=5\\x_2=-1\\y_2=1$

Now substitute into the formula

m= $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

m= $\frac{1-5}{-1--2}$
Simplify

m= $\frac{1-5}{-1+2}$

Subtract

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

Divide

m=-4

Now substitute -4 as m into the equation:

y=-4x+b

Now we need to find b

As the equation passes through both (-2, 5) and (-1, 1), we can use either point to help solve for b.

Taking (-2,5) for example:

Substitute -2 as x and 5 as y:

5=-4(-2)+b

Multiply

5=8+b

Subtract 8 from both sides

-3=b

Substitute -3 as b.

y=-4x-3

Hope this helps!

NeX [460]

Answer: The cost of 1 bottle of juice is $0.33 or 33 cents.

Step-by-step explanation: Divide the total cost by the amount of bottles of juice to find how much each bottle costs.

$\frac{3.96}{12}$ = 0.33

Please answer this question too! :D

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the surface area of the object by adding the surface areas of each part. We have many rectangle faces to count and two triangular faces. Each has a formula for the area. We will find the area of each and then add them all together.

Triangle - 0.5 *b*h

Rectangle - b*h

<u>Triangles</u>

There are two triangles on either side. The height is 1.5. The base is 1.8.

0.5(1.5)(1.8)=1.35 meters squared

Since there are two, we will add 1.35+1.35 in our final calculation.

<u>Rectangles</u>

We will start by calculating the largest rectangle on the side. It has height of 4 and a base of 2.5 (shown above left).

4(2.5)=10

Since there are two (one we can see and one we can't), we will add 10+10 in our final calculation.

Next we calculate the top and bottom. The height is 3 and the base is 2.5 on top. But the bottom sticks out more and adds 1.8 to its base.

Top - 3(2.5)=7.5

Bottom-3(2.5+1.8)=12.9

Finally, we will calculate the front side and back(not visible) as well as the slant up front. The back side has height 4 and base 3. The front side has base 3 and height 4-1.5=2.5. The slant has base 2.3 and height 3.

Back - 4(3)=12

Front- 3(2.5)=7.5

Slant - 3(2.3)=6.9

We add all together for the total surface area: 1.35+1.35+10+10+7.5+12.9+12+7.5+6.9=69.5 meters squared.
