Write the equation of the line given an x -intercept of 10 and y -intercept of 5.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sergeu [11.5K]3 years ago

Answer:

y = (-1/2)x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move from the y-intercept (0, 5) to the x-intercept (10,0), x increases by 10 units while y decreases by 5 units.  Thus, the slope of this line is

m = rise / run = -5 / 10 = -1/2.

Since we know both the slope and the y-intercept of this line, let's use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:  y = mx + b.

Substituting -1/2 for m and 5 for b, we get:

y = (-1/2)x + 5

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (8,-4) and (-7, -4).
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope=m=(Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)

As given values

take,   (X1,Y1)=(-7,-4)

          (X2-Y2)=(8,8)

hence   X1=-7  ,  Y1= -4   ,  X2=8  , Y2= 8

putt the values in the above equation of slope we get ,

m=(8-(-4))/(8-(-7)

m=12/15    Ans

An artist needs to purchase jars of paint. The table shows Which quantity container is the better buy?
frutty [35]

Answer:8-oz jar

First, we have to find out what is the unit rate of the 2-oz jar. $1.50÷2 is $.75.

Second, we have to find the unit rate of the 4-oz jar. $2.92÷4=$73.

Third, we have to find the unit rate of the 8-oz jar. $5.68=$.71.

Fourth, we have to find the unit rate of the 16-oz jar. The division for this one may be tricky. From dividing $11.62 by 16, is stopped at the 3rd number I got from dividing. I got $.726. This is not a value of cents and the value can't go in the thousandths place. So, I rounded .726. I got $.73. So $11.62÷16=$.73.

Lastly, you have to compare the amounts.

The lowest amount or better buy, is $.71 or 8-oz jar.
