Answer:

So the slope of this function is \frac{1}{2} and the y-intercept is \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A first order function has the following format:

y = ax + b

In which a is the slope and b is the y-intercept, that is, the value of y when x = 0.

We have the following equation:

-x + 2y = 3

We just have to rewrite this equation

2y = x + 3

y = \frac{x+3}{2}

y = \frac{x}{2} + \frac{3}{2}

Which means that

a = \frac{1}{2}, b = \frac{3}{2}

So the slope of this function is \frac{1}{2} and the y-intercept is \frac{3}{2}

. Write an equation that is perpendicular to y=2x – 1 and has y-intercept of -3
blagie [28]

The answer is very simple .

First you need to determine the slope, which is the reciprocal of the first line.

Then,

y = mx + b

m => -1/m

The perperdicular line has a new slope equal to m = -1/2

In the formula (y - y1) = m ( x - x1 ) + b , you should sustitude this value.

So the final equation will be

-3 = -1/2 (0) + b

b = - 3

y = (-1/2)x - 3

That is the solution

Lamar works as a tutor for $7 an hour and as a waiter for $8 an hour . this month he worked a combined total of 92 hours at his
ira [324]

t is the number of hours Lamar worked as a tutor 
We know that he worked for 92 hours total, so he worked 92-t hours as a waiter.

So his earnings are: 7t + 8(92-t) = 736 -t dollars

This expression seems logical as if Lamar worked 0 hours as a tutor and 92 as a waiter his earnings would be 8*92 = 736
If he worked as a tutor for 92 hours it would be 7*92= 644 
736-92= 644 
So our expression seems to be working.

11.15+11.75+10.70 I need some help with this problem
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

33.60 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember to add based on place value.

Note that 10.70 is the same as 10.7

11.15 + 11.75 = 22.90

22.90 + 10.7 = 33.60
