A line passes through (-1,7) and (2,10) which answer is the equation of the line

Mathematics

Answer: -x + y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you are going to want to find the slope of the equation. The equation for that it (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (10 - 7)/(2 - -1) and that equals 1. So your slope will be 1.

Now you have half of your equation complete, currently it looks like, y = x + b. So we have to find the y intercept. You can do that by plugging in a pair of coordinates into the current equation and solve for b.

Lets plug in (2,10)

10 = 2 + b

10 - 2 = b

b = 8

So now you have your equation in slope intercept form, y = x + 8. Just move the x over to the left side and there is your answer.

-x + y = 8

Find the four arithmetic means between 100 and 135. Show work.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Please read the answers below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the four means between 100 and 135, this way:

1. Arithmetic mean:

(100 + 135)/2 = 117.5

2. Weighted mean:

We will assign equal weight to both numbers : 5

(100 * 5 + 135 * 5)/10 = (500 + 675)/10 = 1,175/10 = 117.5

3. Geometric mean:

√100 * 135 = √13,500 = 116.2 (Rounding to the next tenth)

4. Harmonic mean:

2/(1/100 + 1/135) = 2/(0.01 + 0.0074) = 114.9 (Rounding to the next tenth)

If the temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am. What was the beginning temperature at 5:00 am if the temper
arlik [135]

If the temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am.  the beginning temperature at 5:00 am if the temperature at 9:00 am was -10.f is 18.f.

<h3>Beginning temperature</h3>

Dropped in temperature=7.t

Number of hours= 5:00 am to 9:00 am=4 hours

Temperature at 9:00 am=-10.f

Hence:

Beginning temperature can be calculated as:

Beginning temperature=(4× 7) + (-10)

Beginning temperature=28 + (-10)

Beginning temperature= 18.f

Check:

Since  temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am

which implies that temperature  7.f dropped for 4 hours.

Hence:

18-7-7-7-7=-10.f

Therefore If the temperature dropped by 7.f each hour from 5:00 am to 9:00 am.  the beginning temperature at 5:00 am if the temperature at 9:00 am was -10.f is 18.f.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-8, 1) and(7,1)?
likoan [24]

Answer:

y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

you can use those points to find the slope

use the equation \frac{y_{1} - y_{2}}{x_{1}-x_{2}} then plug in the numbers

so (1-1)/(-8-7) = 0/15 so the slope is zero meaning it is a horizontal line which we can tell logically because the y coordinates of both points are 1.

so if you plug those numbers into the formula y=mx+b where m is slope and b is the y intercept then

you get y=0*x+1

then 0*x is just zero and it goes away so the equation for this line is y=1

Hope this helps! :)
