Answer:
The equation of the straight line is 4x +y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>
Given points are (-1,5) and ( 2,-7)
Slope of the line
slope of the line m = -4
<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>
The equation of the straight line passing through the point (-1,5) and having slope 'm' = -4
y - 5 = -4 ( x-(-1))
y -5 = -4 x -4
4 x + y -5 +4=0
4x +y -1 =0
<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>
The equation of the straight line is 4x +y = 1
<u><em> </em></u>
<h3>The interest rate is 8 % if your balance on an investment of 857 dollars at the end of six years is 1268.36 dollars</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Principal = $ 857
Amount = $ 1268.36
Number of years = 6
Rate of interest = ?
Simple Interest = Amount - principal
Simple Interest = 1268.36 - 857
Simple Interest = 411.36
<em><u>Use the formula,</u></em>
Thus the interest rate is 8 %
X=5 because 2x plus 6x equals 8x and then when you divide the 40 by 8 u get 5
It should be 11, yes. Sounds like simple subtraction
