Answer:

y = 5 x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the "point-slope" form of a line with slope m = 5 and going through the point (x1, y1) = (2, 9)

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

in our case:

y - 9 = 5 (x - 2)

distributive property to reduce the parenthesis:

y - 9 = 5 x - 10

adding 9 to both sides:

y = 5 x - 10 + 9

y = 5 x - 1

A cell phone provider will allow you to buy a phone over time. They require a $50 initial payment and then charge $25 per month.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial payment done for buying the phone = $50

Charges per month for the phone = $25 per month

To find:

The equation to represent the situation and its slope.

Solution:

First of all, let us assume that $m$ represents the number of months for which monthly is to be made.

Charges paid for one month = $25

Charges paid for $m$ months = $25 $m$

Total cost of the phone = Initial payment + Charges paid for $m$ months

$C = 25m + 50$

It is a linear equation between two variables $C$ and $m$ .

This equation can be compared with slope intercept form of a line.

Slope intercept form of a line is represented by:

$y=Mx+c$

$M$ is the slope.

On Comparing, we get:

$y = C, M = 25, x = m, c = 50$

Therefore, the slope is <em>25</em>.

Answer:

$\frac{7}{10} y$

Step-by-step explanation:

To add fractions <em>with the same denominator</em>, simply add the numerators:

$\frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{b} = \frac{a+c}{b}$

So:

$\frac{3}{10} y+\frac{4}{10} y=\frac{7}{10} y$
