PLZ HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO WHOEVER ANSWERS FIRST What is the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line that passes

Answer:

A. y=-4x+15

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to find the slope by using the formula

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

The first step is to put in the right numbers,

\frac{-1-7}{4-2}

Then, subtract the numbers accordingly

\frac{-8}{2}

Then simplify

\frac{-4}{1} or -4

The next step is finding the y-intercept, you can do this by drawing it out or using the formula (i will be using the point (2,7) where y is 7 and x is 2)

y=-4x+b   Plug in the values

7=-4(2)+b   Multiply

7=-8+b   add 8 to both sides to isolate the variable

15=b

so y=-4x+15

Hope this helps, if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Have a good day! :)

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the two points (2,7) and (4,-1).  In order to determine the linear equation, we need to find the slope and the y-intercept. First, find the slope <em>m.</em> Let (2,7) be x1 and y1, and let (4,-1) be x2 and y2:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} =\frac{-1-7}{4-2}=-8/2=-4

Thus, the slope is -4.

Now, to find the y-intercept, we can use the point-slope form. Recall that the point slope form is:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where (x1, y1) is a coordinate pair and m is the slope.

Use either of the two coordinate pair. I'm going to use (2,7). Substitute them for x1 and y1, respectively:

y-(7)=-4(x-(2))\\y-7=-4x+8\\y=-4x+15

This is also slope-intercept form. The answer is A.

The table represents the height of a rock that is dropped, h(t), in meters, after t seconds. (See picture.)
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: Between <u>2</u> and <u>2.5</u> seconds

How am I getting those values? Those values are selected from the 't' column on the left side of the table. These are time values in seconds. Note how t = 2 corresponds to h = 0.4; while t = 2.5 corresponds to h = -10.6

The change in sign for the height, from positive to negative, means that the height h must be zero at some point between t = 2 seconds and t = 2.5 seconds. We don't know where exactly, but we know that h = 0 at least once in this interval. This is because the height is a continuous function. There are no jumps or gaps in the height (the object can't teleport or anything)

Kelly plans to put her graduation money into an account and leave it there for 4 years while she goes to college. she recieves $
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

C) $877.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Time t = 4 years

Principal, p = $750

rate, r = 4.25% = 0.0425

Amount that will be in her account in four years =

Simple interest (prt/100) + principal

750 * 4.25* 4 / 100 + 750

127.5 + 750

= $877.50

Mr. Marcucci received a bonus of $496 from his employer. He has to pay 33% of his bonus to taxes. How much will Mr. Marcucci pay
tiny-mole [99]
Edit: 33% is not \frac{1}{3}, therefore my solution is wrong. The correct answer is 0.33 x 496, which is $163.68

The following is the original solution, which is incorrect. 
33% = \frac{1}{3}. Multiply the bonus of $496 by \frac{1}{3} to get the solution of \frac{496}{3}, or 165 and \frac{1}{3}

Therefore the solution is $165.33
