Answer:

y = - 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 2)

m = \frac{2+4}{1-3} = \frac{6}{-2} = - 3, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (1, 2), then

2 = - 3 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 3 = 5

y = - 3x + 5 ← equation of line

<h3>How to calculate the quantity of coins in a collection</h3>

In this question we know the quantity of coins in a box and such coins are part of the <em>coin</em> collection. By definition of percentage we have the <em>total</em> quantity of coins in the collection:

x = 10*(100/20)

x = 50

By definition of percentages, we conclude that Montraie has 10 coins saved in his box that come from a collection with a total of 50 coins.

I’m not sure what to do..
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

x=291/76

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert:

1/2x(6x+ 1/2)=-0.8x+16-1.2

Remove parenthesis and move terms:

3x+1/4=-0.8x+14.8

Collect the like terms and convert:

3x+0.8x=14.8-1/4

Subtract the fractions:

3.8x=74/5-1/4

Divide both sides by 3.8:

3.8x=291/20

x=291/76
