Answer:

c = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of c to make the line pass through the point K = (2, -3), we just need to use the values of x = 2 and y = -3 in the equation, then we find the value of c.

So, we have that:

y - 1.5*x = c

(-3) - 1.5 * (2) = c

-3 - 3 = c

c = -6

So the value of c is -6

To check if the value is correct, we can use the value x = 2 and see if the value of y is -3:

y - 1.5*x = -6

y - 1.5*2 = -6

y - 3 = -6

y = -6 + 3 = -3

So it's correct.

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of a line is given as y = mx+c

c is the intercept

m is the gradient or slope

Given the equation of a line to be

y–1.5x = c passing through the point (2,-3), to get c we will substitute the point into the equation

x = 2, y = -3

c = -3-1.5(2)

c = -3-3

c = -6

the function f(x) = 3,005(1+0.03)^x represents the amount of money in a savings account where x represents time in years. what d
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Option d. the initial amount of money placed in the savings account

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=3,005(1+0.03)^{x}

This is a exponential function of the form

f(x)=a(1+r)^{x}

where

a is the initial value

r is the growth rate

(1+r) is the base

x is the number of years

f(x) is the amount of money in a savings account

In this problem we have

a=$3,005

r=0.03=3%

(1+r)=1.03

therefore

3,005 represent the initial value ( the amount of money for the value of x equal to zero)

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Ted is correct. Maggie made mistakes while trying to isolate x for both equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

For 3x-2=0, in order to move -2 to the left side, Maggie had to add 2 on both sides because -2+2=0. The same problem is seen for x+5=0. Maggie had to subtract 5 on both sides because +5-5=0

Solve i + j + t (3i - j) = -i + s (j)<br> In the context of Vector Equations of a Line
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

r = i + j + (-2/3)(3i - j)

Step-by-step explanation:

Vector Equation of a line - r = a + kb ; where r is the resultant vector of adding vector a and vector b and k is a constant

if a = i + j ; b = t(3i - j) and r = -i +s(j)

for this to be true all the vector components must be equal

summing i 's

i + 3ti  = -i; then t = -2/3

j - tj = sj; then s = 1-t; substitue t; s=1+2/3 = 5/3

so r = i + j + (-2/3)(3i - j) which will symplify to -i + 5/3j
