What is the equation of the line that passes through (5,-2) and (-3,4)

Mathematics

Gennadij [26K]3 years ago

Answer:

3x + 4y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope = difference of y values / corresponding difference in x values of the 2 points.

Here it  is (4 - (-2) / (-3 - 5)

= 6 /-8 = -3/4.

Now we use the point/slope form of the equation of a line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)  where m = slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

We take the point (5, -2) and m = -3/4:

y - (-2) = -3/4 (x - 5)

y + 2 = -3/4x + 15/4

y = -3/4 x + 15/4 - 8/4

y = -3/4 x + 7/4  This is the equation in slope/intercept form.

To convert it to standard form we multiply through by 4 and rearrange:

4y = -3x + 7

3x + 4y = 7  is standard form.

Divide all the ratios and compare:

8/12 = 0.666

15/10 = 1.5

6/9 = 0.666

The one that isn't equivalent is 15 over 10

Which statement is true regarding the graphed functions?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

f(0) = g(0)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • if a function h(x) passes through [a,b] then it can be said that h(a)=b.
  • given that, g(x) passes through (-2,0) and (0,4)

so, g(-2)=0, g(0)=4.

  • f(x) passes through (0,4) and (2,0)

so, f(2)=0, f(0)=4.

  • therefore, f(0)=g(0)=4.
  • so, first option is correct.

Your car gets about 20 miles per gallon. You are planning to drive to
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

42.5 or 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you need to travel 850 miles, and you can travel 20 miles per gallon, you should divide 850 by 20 to get the number of gas cans needed. In doing so, you get 42.5 gas cans, but since it may be asking for whole cans rather than part of a gas can, you might want to write 43 instead. If you were to round down to 42, you would not have enough gas to finish the trip, so you should round up to 43. So, it is up to you if you want to write 42.5 or 43.

Hope this helped somewhat! ;(

Select the correct answer.
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of years needed for the company to process a certain amount of milk, we use the given function which relates the number of years, x, and the gallons of milk, y. We simply substitute the number of gallons to y and solve for x.  

y = x^6 − 9x^4 + 70x^2

630 = x^6 − 9x^4 + 70x^2

Solving for x, we will have

x = 4.8866 years or approximately 5 years

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day
