Answer:

Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

- <em>Lets revise some words of some operations in mathematics</em>

# The sum ⇒ (+) Add

# The difference ⇒ (-) subtract

# The product ⇒ (×) multiply

# The quotient (answer of division) ⇒ (÷) divide

* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>

- Michael is trying to write the algebraic expression for the following

 word phrase:

 the quotient of 6 and the sum of 5 and y

- <u><em>Lets explain that:</em></u> the quotient means the answer of division so he

 wants to divide a quantity by another one

∵ The first quantity is 6

∵ The second quantity is the sum of 5 and y

- He wants to divide 6 by (5 + y)

∴ The expression is 6 ÷ (5 + y)

* Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

* Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,-9)(−9,−9) and (6,-7)(6,−7). Put your answer in fully simplifi
nika2105 [10]

2x-15y = 117 is the simplified form of the equation.

Equation : In a mathematical sentence, if two expressions are present in left and right side of an equal sign, then the mathematical sentence is called an equation.

If, a, b, c be integers and x is x-intercept & y is y-intercept, then ax+by=c is called equation of line.

Given that, the equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,-9)(−9,−9) and (6,-7)(6,−7).

Now, (-9,-9) & (6, -7) have a line through them with slope = (-9+7)/(-9-6) = 2/15

Therefore, (y+7) = 2/15×(x-6)

⇒ y+7 = 2x/15 - 4/5

⇒ y = 2x/15 - 4/5 - 7

⇒ y = 2x/15 -39/5

This is the equation in slope intercept form.

Multiplying the equation with 15, we get,

⇒ 15y = 2x-117

⇒ 2x-15y = 117 , which is the simplified form of the equation.

x represents how much he actually pays.

1-0.15=0.85.

1580×0.85=1343
