$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -\cfrac{4}{5} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-5)}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{4}{5}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-4)}]\implies y+5=-\cfrac{4}{5}(x+4) \\\\\\ y+5=-\cfrac{4}{5}x-\cfrac{16}{5}\implies y=-\cfrac{4}{5}x-\cfrac{16}{5}-5\implies y=-\cfrac{4}{5}x-\cfrac{41}{5}$

Write this number in standard form four and thirty one hundreths

user100 [1]

Answer: $(431)(10^{2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The problem gives the following number in words: Four and thirty one hundreths.

2. It is a decimal number. This means that it has a decimal point tha separates the whole part and the decimal part. ("And" is the decimal point). Therefore, four and thirty one hundreths is:

$4.31$

4. The standard form of a number if the scientific notation of the number. Therefore, you can move the decimal point to places to the right ( $10^{2}$ :

$4.31=(431)(10^{2})$

A farmer has 96 apples to sell at the farmers market. She wants to bag the apples before going. How many ways can the farmer bag

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer and explanation:

Farmer's number of apples = 96 apples

Given that Farmer needs to bag the apples so that there are at least 4 apples in each bag(not less than 4 apples in each bag) and not more than 10 apples in each bag

And also all apples in each bag are equal

We need to find the numbers between 4 and 10(including 4 and 10) that can divide 96 without a remainder

4 can divide 96= 24

5 cannot divide 96 without remainder

6 can divide 96 =16

7 cannot divide 96 without remainder

8 can divide 96=12

9 cannot divide 96 without remainder

10 cannot divide 96 without remainder

From the above we see that the factors of 96 = 4, 6, 8 between 4 and 10

4 apples = 24 bags

6 apples = 16 bags
