Answer:

1. You first have to find the slope

2. Next, you have to find the y-intercept

3. Finally, you have to put it in y = mx + b form.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of 2 points is; $\frac{y_{2}- y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

The y-intercept is; $y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1} )$

y = mx + b

m is always the slope

b is always the starting point or y-intercept

Answer:y=mx+b

Step-by-step explanation:

To summarize how to write a linear equation using the slope-interception form you

Identify the slope, m. This can be done by calculating the slope between two known points of the line using the slope formula.

Find the y-intercept. This can be done by substituting the slope and the coordinates of a point (x, y) on the line in the slope-intercept formula and then solve for b.

Once you've got both m and b you can just put them in the equation at their respective position.

F/13 = 6.2 what is the value of f

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The value of f is 80.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation and asked to solve for f.

If we are given a fraction with a variable in the numerator, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the denominator to isolate it.

For example, if you look at this equation:

$\displaystyle\frac{a}{26}=17.9$

We can multiply both sides by 26 to get the a by itself so the equation can be solved.

$\displaystyle26\times\frac{a}{26}=17.9\times26\\\\a = 465.4$

Therefore, we can apply this same technique to the equation $\frac{f}{13}=6.2.$

$\displaystyle\frac{f}{13}=6.2\\\\13\times\frac{f}{13}=6.2\times13\\\\f = 80.6\ \text{or} \ \frac{403}{5}$

Therefore, the value of f is 80.6.

If a person starts investing $100 per month starting at age 21, and that money earns a 5% return every year, how much will this

aalyn [17]

The formula for calculating compound interest with yearly contributions is:

Balance = X*(1 + Y)^n + Z((1 + Y)^(n + 1) - (1 + Y)/Y)

where the balance is the money earned after n years invested

Y is the interest rate as a fraction

Z is the yearly contribution

X is the starting investment

Therefore the calculation for this example is:

Balance = 1200*(1 + 0.05)^48 + 1200((1.05)^49 - (1.05)/05)

= $249,393.5

If AABC is reflected across the yaxis, what are the coordinates of A?

Airida [17]

Answer:

A lies on (1,3) a reflection across the y-axis is (x,y) to (-x,y). The x turns the opposite and y stays the same so...
