Slope intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y part of an intercept where x is 0. So the equation for slope (y1-y2)/(x1-x2) with y1 and y2 the y values of 2 points and x1 and x2 those points' x values, so if you would use the points (-2,0) and (0,5) (I used intercepts because they are easier, but you can use any points on the line) you would get (0-5)/(-2-0) and then 5/2 for the slope. plugging in then you get y=5/2*x+5
W + 3 = Ben's age or 3 + w = Ben's age, either way.
Answer:
C. x + y = 743
x – y = 75
Step-by-step explanation:
Got it right.
Answer: James did not received 60 votes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In a school election,
Percentage of votes received by James = 75%
Percentage of voted hadn't received by James = 100% - 75% = 25%
If 240 students voted , the number of votes hadn't received by James= 25% of 240
Hence, James did not received 60 votes.
This is the concept of proportionality, given that m is directly proportion to y and n and inversely proportional to p^2. We are required to find what happens to m when y is quadrupled, p is tripled and n is multiplied by 5;
From the equation;
m=(yn)/p^2
when:
y is quadrupled we get 4y
p is tripled we get 3p
n is multiplied by 5 we get 5n
thus the new value of m will be:
m=(4y*5n)/(3p)^2
m=(20yn)/9p^2
m=(20/9)(yn/p^2)
that means that m will be increased bby 20/9
