Answer:

534. 75

Step-by-step explanation:

let the income of kellys sister be x

kellys income=x+15% of x

=23x over 20

x+23x/20=999. 75

or, x=465

kellys income=23×465/20

=534. 75

Can someone help me and explain how you did it?

Answer:

slope: -3/5

y-intercept: (0, 4)

slope-intercept form: y = -3/5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Finding the slope</u></h3>

To find the slope of this line, you would take two points from the table and substitute their coordinates into the slope formula.

Slope formula: \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

I'm going to use the points (0, 4) and (5, 1). You can really use any point from the table. Substitute these points into the formula to find the slope.

(0, 4), (5, 1) → \frac{1-4}{5-0} \rightarrow \frac{-3}{5}

This means the slope of the line is -3/5.

<h3><u>Finding the y-intercept</u></h3>

The y-intercept will always have the value of x be 0 (so the point is solely on the y-axis), so by looking at the table we can see that the y-intercept is at (0, 4).

<h3><u>Finding the slope-intercept form</u></h3>

Since we have the slope and a point of the line, we must use point-slope form to find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form. Substitute in the point (0, 4) --you could use any point from the table-- and the slope -3/5 into the point-slope form equation.

point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1) --you'll be substituting the point coordinates and slope into y1, x1, and m.

y - (4) = -3/5(x - (0))

Simplify.

y - 4 = -3/5x

Add 4 to both sides.

y = -3/5x + 4 is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form (you have both the slope and the y-intercept in this form).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Challenge # 1

Line has a negative slope with positive slope.

Therefore, equation will be,

y = 1.5x - 6

Parallel line to the given line will have same slope = 1.5 but with different y-intercept.

Equation of the parallel line → y = 1.5x + 6

Challenge # 2

Line has a negative y-intercept = -1 (Approx.)

Slope of the line = negative

Therefore, equation of the line will be,

y = -3.7x -1

Line parallel to the given line will have same slope but different y-intercept.

Equation of the parallel line → y = -3.7x + 1

Challenge # 3

Line with negative slope and no y-intercept.

y = -0.8x

Parallel line to the given line will have same slope and different y-intercept.

Equation of the parallel line → y = -0.8x + 1

Challenge # 4

Line in the graph has positive slope and negative y-intercept.

y = -5 + 4.2x

Line parallel to the given line will have same slope but different y-intercept.

Equation of the parallel line → y = - 7 + 4.2x

Exercise topic: Permutations and Combinations. A company wants to hire 3 new employees, but there are 8 candidates, 6 of them wh
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

(a) 56 ways

(b) 6 ways

(c) 56 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

candidates: 6 mail, 1 female

number to hire : 3

a) In how many different ways can choose new employees?

use the combination formula to choose r to hire out of n candidates

C(n,r) = C(8,3) = 8! / (3! (8-3)! ) = 40320 / (120*6) = 56 ways

b) In how many different ways can choose a single male candidate?

6 ways to choose a male, one way to choose two female, so 6*1 = 6 ways

c) In how many different ways can choose at least one male candidate?

To choose at least 1 male candidate, we subtract the ways to choose no male candidates out of 56.

Since there are only two females, there is no way to choose 3 female candidates.

In other words, there are 56-0 = 56 ways (as in part (a) ) to hire 3 employees with at least one male candidate.
