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

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.

You have 80 pieces of fabric to make a wall hanging. Each piece of fabric is a square with a side length of 5 inches. You use as
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Okay. fist off don't think of them as 5 units each, but 1. so if you were to put it on graphing paper and box squares each time. you would be able to get 8 in for both sides to make a square. Area then would be 1600ft squared because 8 ×5 is 40 and 40×40 is 1600. then you calculate how many squares you used. 8×8=64. and 80-64=16 so 16 pieces are left over. then 9×9 (increasing the square) is 81. so 17 pieces to increase it.

To get to school you can travel by car, bus or bicycle. If you travel by car, there is a 50% chance you will be late because the
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

a) 16.66%

b) 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Since the teacher assumes each of the three possibilities are equally likely, then he assumes 33.33% to each one.

In this case the probability that you traveled to school that day by car would be

50%  of 33.33% = (0.5)(0.3333) = 0.1666 = 16.66%

b)

In this case, the teacher would assume

90% ride on bicycle

0% take the bus

10% travel by car

So, in this case the probability would be

50% of 10% = (0.5)(0.1) = 0.05 = 5%
