To solve this, find your slope-intercept equation, then convert to point-slope. y=mx+b, m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(6+2)/(3-1)=4, y=4x+b, b=y-4x=6-4(3)=-6, y=4x-6. This eliminates A. Next, convert to point-slope, y-y1=m(x-x1), This gives you y-y1=4(x-x1). Using your two points, you can get y-6=4(x-3) and y+2=4(x-1) as possible equations, which eliminates B and C, meaning your answer is D.

One antifreeze solution is 20% alcohol. Another antifreeze solution is 12% alcohol. How many liters of each solution should be c

katrin [286]

Use this systems of equations to solve:

x = first antifreeze
y = second antifreeze

$\left \{ {{.2x + .12y = .18(15)} \atop {x + y = 15}} \right.$

Isolate y.

x + y = 15
Subtract x from both sides.
y = -x + 15

Substitute y into the other equation.

.2x + .12(-x + 15) = .18(15)
Simplify.
.2x - .12x + 1.8 = 2.7
Subtract 1.8 from both sides.
.08x = .9
Divide both sides by .08
x = 11.25

Substitute x in the equation that we isolated y in.

y = -11.25 + 15
y = 3.75

11.25 L of the first antifreeze and 3.75 L of the second.

1) Find an equation of the line that passes through thr pair of points (-5,-9) and (2,-7).

Yuki888 [10]

1: Assuming this line is linear, the first thing to do is find the slope.
The slope formula is $m=\frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }$ , so in this case, it is $m=\frac{ (-7) - (-9) }{ 2 - (-5) }$ , which comes to $\frac{2}{7}$ . Then, use your slope and one of the points given to write the point-slope formula of the linear equation, and then written in standard form:
y= $\frac{2}{7}$ x- $\frac{53}{7}$ .

2. Use the same process as in question 1 to find:
y=-7x+11
