to find the equation of a linear equation given two points:
1) find the slope   y=mx+b
here's the equation: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
y2- y value of the 2nd point         y1- y value of 1st point
x2- x value of 2nd point             x1- x value of 1st point
1st point- (0, 12) 2nd point- (1,3)
so your slope equation is this: (3-12) / (1-0) or -9/1 or -9
m is -9
2) find the y intercept    y=mx+b
b is whatever y is when x is 0. There's a long way to find it, but you already have it, because one of your points is (0,12). They told you what y was when x was 0.
b is 12.
your linear equation is y=-9x+12
to find the equation of an exponential equation given two points:
1) find a         y=a(b)<span>×
</span>if one of your points has a 0 as the x value, the y value is a. you do have a point like this: (0,12) so...
<span>a is 12
</span>2) find b     y=a(b)<span>×
put what you know a is in the equation: y=12(b)</span><span>×
then put the x and y values of the other point in for x and y in the equation
so (1,3) 1 is x and 3 is y
3=12(b)^1
when the exponent is 1, it disappears:
3=12b
simplify: b= 3/12 or b=1/4

then put all that in the equation:
y=12(3/4)</span><span>×</span>

What does the model predict for 1900?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

64.0% is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given scatter plot of voter turnout every year:

X axis represents the year and

Y axis represents the percentage of people who voted.

The model was predicted as per the equation:

y = -0.1271x + 307.53

<u>To find:</u> Prediction for the year 1900.

Putting the value of x=1900, the value of y will be the predicted value of the model i.e. the value of percentage of voter turnout.

\Rightarrow  y = -0.1271\times (1900) + 307.53\\\Rightarrow  y = -241.49 + 307.53\\\Rightarrow  y = -64.04\%\\OR\\y \approx 64.0\%

So, the model predicts y \approx 64.0\% for the year 1900.

how long will it take b and c to equal the same if b starts with 30,000 with an raise of 2400 and c starts with 36000 with a rai
Rufina [12.5K]
The easiest way is to make equations y=2400x+30000 and y=2000+36000
and then put that in the calculator and go to table and the point they intersect at is (15,66000)

PLS HELP:( !! What is an equation of the line
pychu [463]

Answer:

y =  \frac{3}{2} x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is written in the form of y=mx+c (where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept).

Thus, gradient of given equation= -⅔

The products of the gradient of perpendicular lines is -1.

(Gradient of line)(-⅔)= -1

Gradient of line

=  - 1  \div ( -  \frac{2}{3} ) \\  =  \frac{3}{2}

Hence, m= \frac{3}{2}.

Subst. m= \frac{3}{2}into the equation:

y =  \frac{3}{2} x + c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates into the equation:

When x= -4, y= 2,

2 =  \frac{3}{2} ( - 4) + c \\ 2 =  - 6 + c \\ c = 2 + 6 \\ c = 8

Thus, the equation of the line is y =  \frac{3}{2} x + 8.
