Answer: y=6x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line, we want to find the slope with the formula m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}.

m=\frac{1-(-5)}{-1-(-2)} =\frac{6}{1}=6

Now that we know th eslope, we can start to fill out the equation. To find the y-intercept, we can plug in a given point and solve.

y=6x+b

1=6(-1)+b             [multiply]

1=-6+b                 [add both sides by 6]

b=7

Now, we know the equation is y=6x+7.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1+5)/(-1+2) = 6/1 = 6

y + 5 = 6(x + 2)

y + 5 = 6x + 12

y = 6x + 7

What is the product of −3 1/4 and −1 1/2? Enter your answer as a mixed number, in simplified form, in the box.
Amiraneli [1.4K]

The product of −3 1/4 and −1 1/2  as a mixed number is 4\frac{7}{8}.

The product of −3 1/4 and −1 1/2  as a simplified form is \frac{39}{8}

<h3>What is products and mixed numbers?</h3>

Thew products between two terms can be described as the multiplication operation of the the two terms to give a term which is been performed by the use of the operation sign (*) between the two terms.

The mixed number can be defined as the numbers that contains whole numbers as well as the denominators and numerator.

It should be noted that the product of −3 1/4 and −1 1/2  can be done as (-3\frac{1}{4}  * -1\frac{1}{2}  = -\frac{13}{4} * \frac{-3}{2}  = \frac{39}{8} = 4\frac{7}{8}

How do you find an inequality on a graph ?
Helga [31]
There are three steps:<span>Rearrange the equation so "y" is on the left and everything else on the right.Plot the "y=" line (make it a solid line for y≤ or y≥, and a dashed line for y< or y>)<span>Shade above the line for a "greater than" (y> or y≥) or below the line for a "less than" (y< or y≤).</span></span>

A rabbit can run 35 miles per hour.A fox can run 21 miles in half an hour.Which animal is faster and how much
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The fox is faster. Because he is a fox.


Also because he can (assuming he doesn't fatigue or get caught by hounds in the second half of the hour) run 42 miles in 1 hour.


The rabbit runs 35 miler per hour.


Velocity = Distance/time


Fox velocity = 21 miles/0.5 hour


Dividing by 0.5 is the same as multiplying by 2, so...


Fox velocity = 42 miles/hour

Which statement describes the function y = axn when a = 1 and n is odd?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The graph is symmetric about the origin.

The graph does not pass through the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given:

  • the function y=axn
  • a = 1
  • n is odd

Because a = 1, then the given function can be rewritten as y = n.

  • The graph opens down

The function y = n will produce a horizontal line. Any function in the form of y = a single number, such as 4 or 9.3 will produce a horizontal line.

  • The graph is symmetric about the origin.

This is true, given the graph is a horizontal line.

  • The graph does not pass through the origin.

This is also true. We're given that n is an odd number. The graph will only pass through the origin if n = 0, and 0 is even.

  • The graph has more than one x-intercept.

This would only be true when n = 0, and this isn't possible. So, no.

What is the weight of one half of two thirds of a sack of rice? The sack of rice weighs 99 kilograms.
Eddi Din [679]
First you need to find what 2/3 equals
to do this, take 99 divided by 3
99/3=33

if 1/3 equals 33, two thirds would be 33x2
33x2=66

now, you need to find 1/2 of 66.  this can be done 2 different ways

1.    66 divided by 2    -    66/2=33
OR
2.    66 x 1/2 = 33     OR     66 x .5 = 33

The answer is 33 kilograms
