Answer:

5x-4y = -32

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the equation in point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - -2 = 5/4 ( x- -8)

y+2 = 5/4 (x+8)

Multiply each side by 4 to clear the fraction

4( y+2 )= 4*5/4 (x+8)

4y +8 = 5(x+8)

4y+8 = 5x+40

Subtract 4y from each side

8 = 5x-4y +40

Subtract 40 from each side

-32 = 5x-4y

5x-4y = -32

Answer:

The answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation of a line given a point and slope use the formula

y - y1 = m( x - x1)

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question

slope = 5/4

point (-8 , -2)

So the equation of the line is

Multiply through by 4

4y + 8 = 5( x + 8)

4y + 8 = 5x + 40

5x - 4y = 8 - 40

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Whats992,449 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand

Andreas93 [3]

Yep, the answer is 1,000,000. To explain the process of how the answer is figured out, the 9 next to the 9 in the hundred thousand's place tells us that we need to round up. So, we'd be rounding up to 1,000,000. Hope this helped you understand it :)

What is the y-intercept of the exponential function? f(x)=−32(2)x−3+3 Enter your answer in the box.

Bogdan [553]

y-intercept for x = 0.

Substitute x = 0 to the equation of the function:

$f(x)=-32(2)^{x-3}+3\\\\f(0)=-32(2)^{0-3}+3=-32(2)^{-3}+3=-32\cdot\dfrac{1}{2^3}+3=-32\cdot\dfrac{1}{8}+3\\\\=-4+3=-1\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{y-intercept=-1\to(0,\ -1)}$

A sales person at a car dealership earns A monthly salary of $2400 and $250 for each vehicle sold how many vehicles is the sales

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of vehicles that the sales person sold in a month.

The sales person at the car dealership earns a monthly salary of $2400 and $250 for each vehicle sold. Let y represent the total amount he earns for selling x vehicles in a month. Therefore,

y = 250x + 2400

To determine the number of vehicles that the sales person needs to sell in a month to earn exactly $4000, we would substitute

4000 for y. It becomes

4000 = 250x + 2400

250x = 4000 - 2400 = 1600

x = 1600/250

x = 6.4

He would have to sell 7 vehicles because he cannot sell 6.4 vehicles and if he sells 6 vehicles, it would be lesser than $4000
