Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we know that customers already have to pay $5 just to enter the farm. The $5 is basically a flat fee. Our equation would be:

y=5+____

Now, we know that the apples cost $2.50 per pound. Our final equaiton would be:

y=5+2.5x

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form. y intercept = -2 (GIVE EXPLANATION)

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

See Below:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first of all. to find the equation of the line, the equation has to be in $y=mx+b$ form. In this for the following are:

$m$ is the slope of the line
$b$ is the y intercept

Solving

So, first of all, to find the equation of the line, we can get two points from the line, you can pick any points you want, but for this case, I will be using (0,-2) and (-2,0).

To solve for the slope, we can use rise over run to find the equation.

$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Upon inserting our points into the equation, we get a slope of -1.

$\frac{0-(-2)}{-2-0}=\frac{2}{-2}=-1$

Creating The Equation

To create the equation in $y=mx+b$ form, we need to know what the intercept and the slope are, for which we solved above. We can now put in the things we found to get our final equation.

$y=-1x-2$

We know the slope has to be -1 as we solved for that, and because the line is decending downwards, we can interpret the slope as down 1 right 1.

We know that b is -2 because the y intercept is -2 and b is equal to the y intercept. Therefore the b cation is -2.

19,432÷x=48 Remainder 232 (Plz help its for my hw that's due tmrw)

Neko [114]

Answer:

x = 404.83

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

19,432÷x=48 ...(1)

We need to find the value of x.

$\dfrac{19,432}{x}=48$

Cross multiplying both sides,

$19,432=48x$

Dividing both sides by 48

$\dfrac{19,432}{48}=x\\\\x=404.83$

So, the value of x is 404.83.

Please help explanation if possible

poizon [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The given equation is:

y = -2x + 5………………(i)

Comparing the equation with y = mx+c, we get;

m1 = -2

Also another equation of the line which passes through point (-4,2), we get;

(y-2) = m2(X+4)............(ii) { using the formula (y-y1) = m2(x-x2)}

According to the question, they are perpendicular to eachother, So according to the condition of perpendicular lines;

m1*m2 = -1

-2*m2 = -1

or, m2 = 1/2.

Therefore, m2= 1/2.

Now, keeping the value of m2 in equation (ii).

(y-2) = 1/2(x+4)

y = (1/2)x + 4

Therefore, the required equation is: y = (1/2)x + 4.

Hope it helps!
