write the eqaution in slope intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (4,2)

1 answer:

3 0

Slope intercept form:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept:

We Know the slope (m=2)and we have a point (4,2) then:
x₀=4
y₀=2
we have to find "b"
y=mx+b
2=2(4)+b
8+b=2
b=2-8
b=-6

Therefore:
if b=-6 and m=2; the equation in slope intercept form would be:
y=2x-6

in 2005, the total waste generated in a certain country was 3.474x10^9 pounds. also in 2005, the countrys population was 1.23x10

Answer:

2824

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the number of pounds and divide by the number of people:

3.474×10⁹ / 1.23×10⁶

Divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

(3.474 / 1.23) × 10⁹⁻⁶

2.824×10³

So the country produced about 2,824 pounds of garbage per person in 2005.
