Determine the equation of each line

Mathematics
1 answer:
katovenus [111]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

(a)

here m = - \frac{3}{4} and c = 6, hence

y = - \frac{3}{4} x + 6 ← equation of line

(b)

here m = 6, hence

y = 6x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (2, - 6 ) into the partial equation

- 6 = 12 + c ⇒ c = - 6 - 12 = - 18

y = 6x - 18 ← equation of line

(c)

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 7)

m = \frac{7-3}{4+1} = \frac{4}{5}, hence

y = \frac{4}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (- 1, 3 ), then

3 = - \frac{4}{5} + c → c = 3 + \frac{4}{5} = \frac{19}{5}

y = \frac{4}{5} x + \frac{19}{5} ← equation of line

Work out the value of a and b in the identity.<br> 3ax + 6 - 4(x + b)= 11x + 14
Levart [38]

Answer:

a=5, b=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you simplify the equation, you get:

3ax +6 -4x -4b - 11x - 14 = 0 =>

3ax - 15x -4b -8 = 0

group together x's and constants:

(3a-15)x -8 -4b = 0

To make this 0 for all x, we have to find an a such that 3a-15 = 0 and b such that -8-4b = 0. this leads to a=5, b=-2

At the movie theatre, child admission is $5.10 and adult admission is $9.70. On Thursday, 128 tickets were sold for a total sale
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

53

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of children tickets sold and y be the number of adult tickets sold. Then

x+y=128.

The cost of x children tickets is $5.10x and the cost of y adult tickets is $9.70y, so

5.10x+9.70y =896.60.

From the first equation,

x=128-y,

then

5.10(128-y)+9.70y=896.60,\\ \\652.80-5.10y+9.70y=896.60,\\ \\4.60y=243.8,\\ \\y=53.

53 adult tickets were sold.
