Out of 124 students, only 31 students are taught to buy their lunches in the cafeteria.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that,

The 25% of 124 students are taught to buy their lunches in cafeteria.

Therefore, the total number of students taught to buy their lunches in cafeteria is 25% of 124.

<u>To find the number of students who are capable to buy lunches in cafeteria:</u>

Replace the % symbol into the numeric form.
The % is represented by 1 ÷ 100.

The 25% of 124 students is written as,

⇒ 25×(1/100)×124

⇒ (1/4)×124

⇒ 31

The number of students taught to buy lunches in the cafeteria out of 124 students is 31 students.

time = distance/speed (d/m)
time = 22 meters/second / 1.5 meters
time = 14.66 seconds or 15 seconds

Which equation has a graph that passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4)?

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

$y = 3x + 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked the equation of the graph which passes through the points at (0,5) and (-3,-4).

Now, we know that the equation of a straight line passing through the points ( $x_{1},y_{1}$ ) and ( $x_{2},y_{2}$ ) is given by

$\frac{y - y_{1}}{y_{1} - y_{2}} = \frac{x - x_{1}}{x_{1} - x_{2}}$ .

So, in our case ( $x_{1},y_{1}$ ) ≡ (0,5) and ( $x_{2},y_{2}$ ) ≡ (-3,-4)

Therefore, the equation of the straight line will be

$\frac{y - 5}{5 - (- 4)} = \frac{x - 0}{0 - (- 3)}$

⇒ $y - 5 = \frac{9}{3}x$

⇒ $y = 3x + 5$ (Answer)

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (7,-2) and has a slope of

konstantin123 [22]

I only know how to do a, so i hope i can help a little bit.
y=mx+b
-2=-3(7)+b
-2=-21+b
b=19
so your equation is y=-3x+19
i hope this helps!!
