Dy/dx=1/2, 1/2, 1/2 etc
So this is a linear equation of the form y=mx+b where m=dy/dx=1/2 so
y=x/2 +b, now we can use any point to solve for the y-intercept, "b", I'll use (7,0)
0=7/2 +b
b=-7/2 so
y=x/2-7/2
y=(x-7)/2
Answer:
There are 40 problems on the test
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p = the number of problems on the test
The number of problems on the test times the percent correct is the number correct
p * 85% = 34
p * .85 = 34
Divide each side by .85
p * .85/.85 = 34/.85
p = 40
There are 40 problems on the test
Answer:
y = 1/3x + 4 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 6y = 12
First find the slope
Solve for y
Subtract 2x
2x - 6y -2x= 12-2x
-6y = -2x+12
Divide by -6
-6y/-6 =-2x/-6 +12/-6
y = 1/3 x -2
The slope is 1/3
Parallel lines have the same slope
Using the slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 1/3x +b
And substituting in the point
4 = 1/3 (-1) +b
4 = -1/3 +b
Add 1/3 to each side
4 + 1/3 = b
y = 1/3x + 4 1/3
2hr=$12
1hr=12/2= $6/hr
$36=1hr/$6= 6hr for $36
If he worked 3hr he would get (6*3)= $18
If he worked 4 hours he would get (6*4)= $24
I hope this answers your question
Answer:
2 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
1 pound = 1/2 hour (30 minutes)
x pound(s) = 1 hour (60 minutes)
Equation:
1 pound · (2) = 1/2 hour · (2)
2 = 1 hour
