Answer:

y=8x-67

Step-by-step explanation:

So the question is what is the equation for the following two coordinate points?

Well to start off what is the formula? The formula is called the linear equation. Which is y=mx+b. What does these letters or "variables" mean or represent?! Welp, m stands for the slope, which is "Δy over Δx." Some people call say "the change of y over x." I call it the rise over run. So it is saying y over x. The b in the linear equation is the y-intercept. The y-intercept is when the line crosses the y-axis.

With that being said, let's find the slope. But how? Well with the Δy over Δx. The formula is y₂-y₁ over x₂-x₁. With the two coordinate points we can label them.

y₂=5

y₁=(-11)

x₂=9

x₁= 7

Now let set it up into the equation of y over x

Slope =  <u> 5- (-11) </u> = <u> 5 + 11  </u> = <u>  16 </u> = 8

                  9-7         9-7          2

So we now have the slope! Which is 8! So put that into the linear equation!

y=8x+b

Next, we need to find b, the y-intercept! How do we do that well, we can figure it out by one of the coordinate points! Let use the (7, -11) point for example! Remember, x= 7 and y= (-11)

(-11) = 8(7) + b

(-11) = 56 + b

<u>-56   -56</u>

-67 =  b

We now have b, which is negative 67! So we need to put all the information we have found into the linear equation!

y=8x-67

The area of a trapezoid is 18 square meters. One base is 3 meters long and the other is 6 meters long. Find the height of the tr
aleksley [76]

Answer:

height = 4 meters

h = 2A / ( a +  b )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent the area of the trapezoid, h, the height a, the length of one base and b, the length of the other base

Area of a trapezoid, A = ( a + b)* h / 2

Now let's slot in the given values

A= 18 sq meters

a = 3 meters

b = 6 meters

we have;

18 = ( 3 + 6 ) * h /2

18 = 9 * h /2

Cross multiply

18*2 = 9h

36 = 9h

divide both sides by the coefficient of h (9)

4 = h

therefore, h = 4 meters

To solve for h without substituting

From A = ( a + b )* h /2

cross multiply

2*A = ( a + b )* h

divide both sides by ( a + b )

2A / ( a + b ) = h

therefore,

h = 2A / ( a +  b )

The vertex of the parabola below is at the point (1.-3). Which of the equations below could be the one for this parabola?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: Choice D. y = (x-1)^2 - 3

The vertex is (h,k) = (1,-3). So h = 1 and k = -3.

We have a = 1 as the leading coefficient.

Plug those values into the equation below

y = a(x-h)^2 + k

y = 1(x - 1)^2 + (-3)

y = (x - 1)^2 - 3

natima [27]

To solve this, let's use the variable 'x' to represent the money invested:

11(0.026(x)) = 6500

0.286x = 6500

Divide:

x = 227272.7272...

We can round up:

x = 227272.73

June has to invest $227272.73
