\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{We have the points (-4, 0) and (4, -4)}\\\\\text{substitute:}\\\\m=\dfrac{-4-0}{4-(-4)}=\dfrac{-4}{8}=-0.5\\\\\text{therefore we have the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form:}\\y=-0.5x+b.\\\\\text{Parallel lines have the same slope.}\\\\\text{Therefore the line equation from question is y = -0.5x + b.}

\text{It passes through the point (2, 3).}\\\\\text{Substitute the coordinates of the given point  to the equation of the line}:\\\\3=-0.5(2)+b\\3=-1+b\qquad|+1\\4=b\to b=4\\\\\text{therefore}\ y=-0.5x+4\qquad|+0.5x\\\\0.5x+y=4\qquad|\cdot2\\\\\boxed{x+2y=8\to B.)}

6x+4y=12 into y=my+b
kirza4 [7]
6x + 4y = 12...subtract 6x from both sides
4y = -6x + 12 ...divide both sides by 4
(4/4)y = (-6/4)x + 12/4...reduce
y = -3/2x + 4 <== y = mx + b

People use water to cook, clean, and drink every day. An estimate of 15.5% of the water used each
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

260 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

An estimate of 26.5​% of the water used each day is for cleaning and a family uses 68.9 gallons of water a day for cleaning​,

Percentage of water used for cleaning= 26.5%

Gallons of water used for cleaning= 68.9

Let the number of gallons used everyday be represented by g. This will give:

26.5% of g = 68.9

26.5/100 × g = 68.9

0.265 × g = 68.9

0.265g = 68.9

Divide both side by 0.265

0.265g/0.265 = 68.9/0.265

g= 260

260 gallons of water are used everyday

POLS HELP ME NOWWWW I DONT UNDERSTAND IT
Leni [432]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

using the equation 'y = 12x', if you plug in zero for 'x' you get zero for 'y'; the only graph that has the point (0, 0) is (b)

also, the x-axis represents time so, as time increases, so does the number of calories burned (which is measured on the y-axis) -- not staying flat or decreasing
