Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the line equation we assume that its form is y = m*x + b. Where m is the slope and b is the independent variable that intercepts the Y axis.

If we have two points as P1=(x1,y1) and P2=(x2,y2) we can use the slope formula as:

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

The points given are P1=(7,7) and P2=(2,-3), then the using the slope formula we obtain:

m = (-3-7)/(2-7)

m = (-10)/(-5)

m = 2

By now the equation is y = 2x + b. To find the value of b we have to replace in the equation any point, in this case i am using P2:

-3 = 2*(2) + b

-3 = 4 + b

-3 -4 = b

-7 = b

Therefore the equation of the line is:

y = 2x - 7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of its areas is equal to

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

In this problem the scale factor is equal to the ratio 10:3

Let

z-------> the scale factor

so

z2=(10/3)2=100/9

A typical middle-income household in 1980 earned $34,757. A similar household in 2009 earned $38,550. What was the relative incr
S_A_V [24]

Given conditions are :

In 1980's, a typical middle-income household earned=  $34,757

In 2009, a similar middle-income household earned= $38,550

And we have to find relative increase in income for these households from 1980 to 2009.

So first we will find the total increase in amounts.

38550-34757=3793

Relative increase = \frac{3793}{34757}*100

= 10.91% or rounding it off we get approx 11%.

Hence, the answer is 11%.
