First, find the slope of the given points (m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1)
m = (6-1) / (-4-1) = 5/-5 = -1
Then substitute the slope and the coordinates of either point for x and y into y = mx + b, we’ll use (-4,6)
6 = (-1)(-4) + b
Solve for b
6 = 4 + b, subtract 4 from both sides: b = 2
Rewrite y = mx + b with m = -1 and b = 2
Equation: y = -1x + 2 or y = -x + 2

PLEASE HELP ASAP!! LUL

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it should add up to 360°

360=135 + 120 + 7x-64+5x-4+3x+31+4x+15+6x-8 (seems like too much huh)

360=225+25x ( much better just add the x terms and the constants together)

135 = 25x ( just subtract 225 from each side of the equation)

5.4 = x ( divide 135 by 25 )

The lung capacity of the blue whale is 5100L. Convert this volume into gallons. Express your answer to two significant figures a

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

By definition, we have that the conversion of a US gallon to liters is given by:
1 liter = 3.78541 gallons
Therefore, we can apply the following rule of three:
1 liter ---------------------> 3.78541 gallons
5100 liters --------------> x
Clearing x we have:
$x = (5100) * (3.78541)

x = 19305.591$
two significant figures:
$x = 19000
$
Answer:
The lung capacity of the blue whale is:
$x = 19000 gallons$
