Step-by-step explanation:

Given line is passing through the points (3, 60) & (6, 50)

Therefore, slope of line:

$m = \frac{50 - 60}{6 - 3} = - \frac{10}{3} \\ y - intercept \: (b) = 70 \\ equation \: of \: line \: in \: slope \: intercept \\ form \: is \: given \: as : \\ y = mx + b \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \: y = - \frac{10}{3} x + 70}} \\ which \: is \: the \: required \: equation.$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept form is y=mx+b

m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

You can use any ordered pairs but I suggest ones that touch down on an intersect like (0,70) and (3,60)

slope= $\frac{y^{2} -y^{1} }{x^{2} -x^{1} }$

slope using (0,70) and (3,60)= $-\frac{10}{3}$

The y-intercept is 60 since its the number that touches the y-axis

So the equation for the trend line is

$y=-\frac{10}{3} x+70$

Solve the equation. Then check your solution

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Option B is correct i.e. 21

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question we're provided with an equation that is :

v/7 = 3

And we are asked to find the solution for the equation .

Solution : -

 $\longrightarrow \: \frac{v}{7} = 3$ 

Multiplying by 7 on both sides :

$\longrightarrow \: \frac{v}{ \cancel{7} }\times \cancel{7} = 3 \times 7$

On further calculations , we get :

$\longrightarrow \: \blue{\boxed{v = 21}}$

Therefore , solution for equation is 21 .That means option B is the correct answer.

Verifying :

We are verifying our answer by substituting value of v in the equation given in question :

$\longrightarrow \: \frac{v}{7} = 3$

Putting value of v :

$\longrightarrow \: \cancel{\frac{21}{7}} = 3$

By dividing 21 with 7 , we get :

$\longrightarrow \:3 = 3$

$\longrightarrow \: L.H.S=R.H.S$

$\longrightarrow \: Hence , \: Verified.$

Therefore , our answer is valid .

Can you help me simplify this and explain it -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Archy [21]

A. Factor 28 + 7g 7(g + 4)

add
28 + 7g

= 7 (g + 4)

B. (12r + 15) – 65 Remove parentheses
12r+15-65

= 12r - 50

C. 24 – (8p – 12)

24 - (8p - 12) = -8p + 36

24 - (8p - 12) -(8p - 12) 8p + 12

= 24-8p+12

Simplify 24-8p+12

Group like terms
-8p+12+24

Add the numbers 12+24=36

Answer is -8p+36

The product of a number and -8 gives eight times the sum of that number and 36. Find that number

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

-18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be our number. First we have to write our equation.

The product of a number and -8 is represented as -8x (-8 multiplied by x). Remember that 'product' signifies multiplication.

The result is eight times the sum of x and 36. This is represented as 8(x + 36). We add x and 36 first because 8 has been multiplied by the sum of those two numbers.

So our equation is:

-8x = 8(x + 36)

We can now solve for x. First, expand the bracket.

-8x = 8x + 288

Next, subtract 8x from both sides. This will give us only one term containing x, which will make it easier to solve.

-8x - 8x = 8x + 288 - 8x

-16x = 288

Divide both sides by -16

x = -18
