Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  -  \frac{2}{5} x \\</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line when given the slope and a point we use the formula

y -  y_1 = m(x -  x_1)

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the point is ( 5 , - 2) and slope is - 2/5

The equation of the line is

y + 2 =  -  \frac{2}{5} (x - 5) \\ y + 2 =  -  \frac{2}{5} x + 2 \\ y =  -  \frac{2}{5} x + 2 - 2

We have the final answer as

y =  -  \frac{2}{5} x \\

Hope this helps you

PROBLEM SOLVING A game of bowling has ten frames. After five frames, your friend’s bowling score is 65 and your bowling score $x
Elodia [21]

Considering the situation described, we have that:

a. x = 65 - 8 = 57.

b. You won the game, as you scored 137 and your friend 130.

<h3>What is the equation for the situation after five frames?</h3>

Your friend's score is of 65, and your score of x is 8 less than your friend, hence the equation is:

x = 65 - 8 = 57.

<h3>What are the final scores?</h3>

Your friend score doubled, hence his/her final score is:

2 x 65 = 130.

Your score increased by 80, hence your final score is:

57 + 80 = 137.

You won the game, as you scored 137 and your friend 130.

<span>Part B: </span>
<span>1 cup = 14.4375 in^3 </span>
<span>14 cups = 14.4375 in^3 * 7 = 202.125 in^3 </span>
<span>Part C: </span>
<span>Height of water = (202.125 in^3)/(13 in x 7 in) = 2.22 in.
