Find the equation of a line that goes through points (-3, -5) and (-1, -2).

Mathematics
1 answer:
ivann1987 [24]3 years ago
7 0

The slope-point formula:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The formula of a slope: m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have:

(-3,-5)\to x_1=-3,\ y_1=-5\\(-1,-2)\to x_2=-1,\ y_2=-2

Substitute and calculate:

m=\dfrac{-2-(-5)}{-1-(-3)}=\dfrac{3}{2}=1.5\\\\y-(-5)=1.5(x-(-3))\\\\y+5=1.5(x+3)\\\\y+5=1.5x+4.5\ \ \ |-5\\\\y=1.5x-0.5

The height of a triangle is 7 cm longer than its base.
katrin [286]
A) Height -7 = base
B) .5 * height * base = 60
Substituting A into B
B) .5 * height * (height -7) = 60
B)  .5*height^2  -3.5*height = 60
B)  .5*height^2 -3.5*height -60 = 0
Using the quadratic formula:
Height = 15
Subtracting 7 gives us the base length
Base = 8
**************************************************************
Double-Check
.5 * 15 * 8 = 60

Answer:

<u>y = 320,000 ( 1.048 ) ^x</u>

formula i used:

A = <em>amount that you start with</em>

t = amount of years / time

%increase: you must convert your percent (4.8%) to a decimal (0.048)

A ( 1 + %increase ) ^t
