I would think that all but one point would be on the line. One way to approach this problem is to find the equation of the line based upon any two points chosen at random, and then determine whether or not the other points satisfy this equation. Next time, would you please enclose the coordinates of each point inside parentheses: (2.5,14), (2.25,12), and so on, to avoid confusion.
14-12
slope of line thru 1st 2 points is m = ---------------- = 2/0.25 = 8
2.50-2.25
What is the eqn of the line: y = mx + b becomes
14 = (8)(2.5) + b; find b:
14-20 = b = -6. Then, y = 8x - 6.
Now determine whether (12,1.25) lies on this line.
Is 1.25 = 8(12) - 6? Is 1.25 = 90? No. So, unless I've made arithmetic mistakes, (1.25, 5) does not lie on the line thru (2.5,14) and (2.25,12).
Why not work this problem out yourself using my approach as a guide?
Answer:
y - 3 = 2/3(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = 2/3
point-slope form --> y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 3 = 2/3(x - -2)
y - 3 = 2/3(x + 2)
point slope form of the line is y - 3 = 2/3(x + 2)
Answer:
$1.94
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 3 folders = $2.91
We need to find the cost of 2 folders.
First we will find the cost of 1 folder
1 folder = $2.91/3 = $0.97
To find the cost of 2 folders, multiply $0.97 and 2
2 folders = $0.97 × 2
= $1.94
Hence, the cost of 2 olders is $1.94.
Answer:
$11,728
Step-by-step explanation:
Twice a year, for 4 years is 8 times
516×8 = 4128
Yearly for 4 years is 4 times
700×4 = 2800
Every month for 4 years is 48 times
100×48 = 4800
Minimum expenditure:
4128 + 2800 + 4800 = $11,728
