Answer:

the equation of this line is y = (-1/4)x + 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

As we go from (−1, 2) to (3, 1), x increases by 4 and y decreases by 1.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting these points is m = rise / run = -1/4.

Find the equation of this line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.  Substitute 1 for y and 3 for x and calculate b:  

1 = (-1/4)(3) + b, or

4/4 = -3/4 + b, or

7/4 = b.

Then the equation of this line is y = (-1/4)x + 7/4.

You did not provide us with equations to select.

Find the slope m.

m = (1 - 2)/(3 - (-1))

m = -1/(3 + 1)

m = -1/4

Use the slope and one of the points and plug into the point-slope formula.

y - 1 = (-1/4)(x - 3)

Isolate y.

y - 1 = (-1/4)x + (3/4)

y = (-1/4)x + (3/4) + 1

y = (-1/4)x + (7/4)

In the year 2000, a house was valued at $60 000.
Ne4ueva [31]

The percentage by which the cost is increasing will be 75%.

<h3>What is the percentage?</h3>

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A fraction of 100 can be used to express the ratio.

The percentage of the 8th graders who want to go to the water slides is found from;

In the year 2000, a house was valued at $60 000.

In 2010, the same house was valued at $80 000.

The percentage value is found as;

\% = \frac{60000}{80000} \times 100 \\\\ \% =75 \%

Hence the percentage by which the cost is increasing will be 75%.

Which angle is an x–intercept for the function y=cos(1/2x)? A. 0 B. pie/2 C. pie D. 2pie
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

For the function

y = cos(1/2 x)

The x-intercept can be calculated by equating the function to zero and solving for x. So,

y = cos(1/2 x) = 0

1/2 x = arc cos 0

1/2 x = 90° +180°n

x =2 (90° +180°n)

x = 180° + 360°n

or converting to radians

x = (180° + 360° n)(π/180°)

x = π + 2π n

where n is any whole number

if n = 0

x = π

Therefore, the x-intercept is π or π+2π n
