Slop=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Slop=(-2-(-7))/(-5-6)
Slop=-5/11
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
He spends $298
Step-by-step explanation:
He has 16 curtains
16*2=32
That answer is how many he needs
Now multiply that by the price
32 curtains for $29
32*29=928
The answer is $928
Answer:
25 boys.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, first add the two parts of the ratio. 9 + 5 = 14. Then divide 70 by 14 to get 5. Since the total is 5 times the ratio total, multiply both sides of the ratio by 5. The result is 45 : 25. If you add them together, you get a total of 70. Therefore, there are 25 boys in the class.
You are given two x and y pairs: (100,45) and (570,162.5)
First solve for the slope, m.
m = (162.5 - 45) / (570 - 100)
m = 117.5 / 470
m = 0.25
Not only is "m" the slope but it is the rate (dollars per minute) in the question. So it's 25 cents per minute to use the phone.
After imputing "m" the linear equation looks like this:
y = 0.25x + b
Use either point as (x,y) to solve for the y-intercept "b". I'll use (100,45)
45 = 0.25(100) + b
45 = 25 + b
45 - 25 = b
20 = b
Not only is "b" the y-intercept but it is also always the flat fee added on to linearly increasing cost questions like this.
Final equation is:
y = 0.25x + 20
Part B.) If 939 minutes are used. Just put that in for x and solve for y.
y = 0.25(939) + 20
y = 234.75 + 20
y = 254.75
