Which equation describes the line that passes through points (2,5) and (0,9)?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Masja [62]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

y = -2x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (9-5)/(0-2)

   = 4/-2

   = -2

We will use the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y =-2x+b

We know that 9 is the y intercept since x is equal to zero

y = -2x+9

miss Akunina [59]
Yes she will have enough. Here is why.

10 1/8 x 13 3/4 = 139

Therefore the room is 139 square feet. She has 150 square feet of carpet, so she has enough.

The equation of line L is y=5x+1
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

L₁ is y = 5x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

L₂ is 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 ( subtract - 10x + 3 from both sides )

2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = 5x - \frac{3}{2} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

Since L₁ and L₂ have equal slopes then they are parallel lines

Degger [83]

Answer:

Hannah is deciding between two truck rental companies. Company A charges an initial fee of $30 for the rental plus $2 per mile driven. Company B charges an initial fee of $100 for the rental plus $1 per mile driven. Let AA represent the amount Company A would charge if Hannah drives xx miles, and let BB represent the amount Company B would charge if Hannah drives xx miles. Write an equation for each situation, in terms of x,x, and determine the interval of miles driven, x,x, for which Company A is cheaper than Company B.

Write the equation of a line perpendicular to y= -1/3x + 5 and passes through the point (6, 4).
Levart [38]

Answer:

y = 3x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines will have a opposite reciprocal slope, so the slope will be 3.

Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b, then solve for b:

y = mx + b

4 = 3(6) + b

4 = 18 + b

-14 = b

Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b

y = 3x - 14

So, the equation of the line is y = 3x - 14
