Okay. Let's make a proportion for this. So we can do 21/3=x/60. Let's multiply cross way. So 21 x 60 is 1260. We multiply 3 by x to get 3x. So our equation will be 3x=1260. We can isolate the equation by 3, and 1260 divided by 3 is 420. So x=420. We then have to convert into feet. So 420 divided by 12 is 35. So it would be 35 feet. Therefore, the machine can make 35feet of ribbon in a hour.

A line contains the point (4, 2) and has a slope of −3.
Naya [18.7K]

Answer: the equation is y = - 3x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

c represents the y intercept

m represents the slope of the straight line.

The slope of the given line is - 3 and it contains the point (4, 2)

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = - 3, x = 4 and

y = 2 into y = mx + c. It becomes

2 = - 3 × 4 + c

2 = - 12 + c

c = 12 + 2

c = 14

The equation becomes

y = - 3x + 14
