Answer:

y = -5x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

What's the slope of this line?  Going from  (7,-42)  to  (10,-57), we see x increasing by 3 and y decreasing by 15.  Thus, the slope is m = rise / run = -15/3, or m = -5.  

Now subst. -42 for y in y = mx + b, -5 for m and 7 for x:

-42 = -5(7) + b.  Thus, b = -42 + 35, or b = -7. and the equation of this line is thus   y = -5x - 7.

Check:  if x = 10, does this equation yield y = -57?  Yes

Write the name of each angle arm<br> A to O to C
tester [92]

Answer:

∠AOC

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement "A to O to C" is talking about each of the points that form an angle. Each point is given a letter as its name.

The symbol ∠ <u>means angle</u>.

You need two lines to form an angle, and you need two points to form a line. By reusing one of the points, you need three points to form an angle. The point that is being reused is always the point in the middle, in this case, that point is called 'O'.

Y intercept and slope of y= 5/2
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

y intercept at 5/2. Slope is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a line can be represented by the formula y=mx+b. M is the slope or rate of change and b is the y intercept. Since the equation y=5/2 does not have an x in it the slope is 0 and you have a perfectly straight horizontal line. Since we are just left with 5/2 that is our y intercept.

In other words, no matter what value you plug in for x, y will always be 5/2.

Write a real-world problem that can be represented by a rule and a table using division
LuckyWell [14K]
A company makes different size square containers. How can you find the length of each side if you know the perimeter of each of the containers? Represent your answer in a table, and right and equation that shows the rule used. You would write the equation x/4=y. I would create an input/output table with the labels x and y. I would then write various lengths for the perimeters and use the rule of dividing by 4 to find the y values.
