Answer:

  D.  y = -1/5x +32/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line passing through point (h, k) with slope m can be written ...

  y = m(x -h) +k

Filling in your given values, the equation is ...

  y = -1/5(x -(-3)) +7

  y = -1/5x -3/5 +7 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  y = -1/5x +32/5 . . . . . combine constants

Ian has 12.2 ounce bottle of ketchip. He uses 1/20 of the ketchup every time he has a buffalo burger How many ounces of ketchup
tatiyna
If Ian uses 1/20 of the ketchup 4 times, this is equal to 4/20, or \frac{4}{20}.

\frac{4}{20} can be simplified to \frac{1}{5}, which means we need to work out \frac{1}{5} of 12.2

\frac{1}{5} is equivalent to 20%, which as a decimal is 0.2

0.2 x 12.2 = 2.44 - however, this is how much he has used, and we need to figure out how much is left.

12.2 - 2.44 = 9.76

So, Ian has 9.76 oz remaining :)

A store sells packages of comic books with a poster. A poster and 5 comics cost ​$15.75 A poster and 11 comics cost ​$27.75 Writ
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

y=x+5.99

Step-by-step explanation:

A poster and 2 comics cost ​$7.99

(2,7.99)

A poster and 11 comics cost ​$16.99.

(11,16.99)

Let y be the cost of package and x be the no. of comics

We will use two point slope form :

(x1,y1) = (2,7.99)

(x2,y2) = (11,16.99)

Formula :

y-y1 = y2-y1/x2-x1(x-x1)

Substitute the values:

Hence a linear function rule that models the cost y of a package containing any number x of comic books is y=x+5.99
