Answer:

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the line given in the graph is,

y = mx + b

Where 'm' is the slope of the line

And 'b' represents the y-intercept

Since slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is modeled by,

m = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

If this line passes through (-3, 3) and (3, -1),

m = $\frac{3+1}{-3-3}$

m = $-\frac{4}{6}$

= $-\frac{2}{3}$

And 'b' = 1

Equation of this line will be,

$y=-\frac{2}{3}x+1$

After eating a meal at a restaurant, we decided to tip 25%, building a grand total of $87.50. What was the price before the tip?

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

65.62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

After eating a meal at a restaurant, we decided to tip 25%, building a grand total of $87.50.

To find:

Price before tip

Solution:

87.50 × 25% = 21.875

~Round~: 21.875 to 21.88

87.50 - 21 .88 = 65.62

Thus the price before the tip is 65.62

Check Answer:

Formula: Higher number - Lower number ÷ original number × 100

Solve:

87.50 - 65.62 = 21.88

21.88 ÷ 87.50=0.25005714285

0.25005714285 × 100 = 25.0057142857

Round - 25%

5y + 2 + 6 + 2y 5y + 2(y + 3) + 2 combining like terms 6y − y + 2y + 10 − 4 + 2 Commutative Property Distributive Property arrow

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Distributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

5y + 2 + 6 + 2y

= 5y + 2(y + 3) + 2 This is the distributive property of multiplication w.r.t. addition

= 6y − y + 2y + 10 − 4 + 2

The distributive property of multiplication with respect to addition is the one which separates each term by using multiplication and then addition.

So we see that 2 is multiplied with y and 3 and then added with the like terms. If there was a minus sign the property would be distributive over subtraction.

I need help with this question: Label: Coefficients, variables, terms, and constant. −2x2 + 9x − 3

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

coefficients: {-2, +9, -3}

variables: {x}

terms: {-2x^2, 9x, -3}

constant: {-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

It is difficult to "label" here, so we'll list each, separated by commas.

Coefficients

Coefficients are the multiplicative factor of an expression. Depending on the expression of interest, it may consist of numbers, variables, or expressions. Here, we consider the expression of interest to be powers of x, so the coefficients are as listed. The last one (-3) is sometimes called a "constant coefficient." It multiplies x^0.

coefficients: {-2, +9, -3}

Variables

A variable is usually a letter, symbol, or sequence of letters and symbols, that stands for something else--usually an unknown quantity. Its meaning and value will depend on the context. Generic variables are usually taken from the end of the alphabet: x, y, z. Their capitalization, font, or face may give special meaning. For example bold-face capital letters may be used to represent vectors or matrices.

variables: {x}

Terms

A term is a product of coefficients and variables. Terms in a polynomial are separated by addition or subtraction symbols.

terms: {-2x^2, 9x, -3}

Constant

"Constant" usually refers to a term containing no variables. It generally refers to a value that doesn't change.

constant: {-3}

Need help doing this, please show steps. :)

Pavel [41]

Answer:

75.02 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Split the problem into 2 different part. The bottom part of the tree is 5 feet because that's where your eye levels are, so you just have to solve the top part of the tree.

The top part of the tree is solved by finding the height of the triangle. If you remember SohCahToa, the opposite side of the angle is solved using tangent.

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(35) = x/100, x is just the unknown height of the tree.

multiply 100 on both side to get x by itself.

x = 100tan(35)

x = 70.02

add that top height of the tree(70.02ft) with the bottom height of the tree(5ft).

70.02+5 = 75.02 ft
