Mathematics

mr Goodwill [35]2 years ago

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

A band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD. The band writes and records ​60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD.
scoray [572]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD and that the band writes and records ​60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD. Therefore, the total songs will be:

= 15 + (60% × 15)

= 15 + (0.6 × 15)

= 15 + 9

= 24 songs.

During the editing​ process, ​75% of the songs are removed. The total number of songs that will be there on the final​ CD will be:

= 24 - (75% × 24)

= 24 - (0.75 × 24)

= 24 - 18

= 6

6 songs will be there on the final CD.
