Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

First find 2 points on the line.  To do this you will need to substitute numbers in for x and y.  Do this by first putting 0 in for x to find the value of y:

9(0) + 4y = -36

0 + 4y = -36       =  4y = -36   =        y = -36 ÷ 4 = -9     y= -9

(0,-9)


Now that we have that point substitute 0 in for y.

9x + 4(0) = -36

9x + 0 = -36   =    9x = -36     =    x = -36  ÷ 9    x = -4

(-4,0)


After you have your two points decide which on you want to be (x1,y1) and which you want to be (x2,y2).  It doesn't matter which one you choose.  You will then plug in your numbers into the slope formula:

       <u>y2 - y1</u>          <u> -9 - 0</u>         <u>-9</u>           The slope is - 9/4

       x2 - x1            0 - 4          -4

MrRissso [65]
Math:

4 feet * 12 = 48+2 = 50 inches.

3*12 = 36 inches + 7 = 43 inches.
50 - 43 = 7.

Your answer:
7 inches.

Fudgin [204]

Fee for distance = total fee - initial fee = 12.70-2.20 = $10.50

The sales tax in Mansfield is 8.25% on anything purchased. What is the percent of the original price you will pay? Write your an
Fynjy0 [20]
If the tax was 10%, then you’d end up paying the original 100% plus the additional 10% tax, so you’d pay 110% of the original price.

In your example, it’s the same, except you have 8.25% tax, so you’d pay 100%+8,25% or 108.25% of the original price.
That’s stated as a percent.

To convert a percent to a decimal, you divide by 100:
108.25 ÷ 100 = 1.0825

To convert a decimal to a fraction, you have to know the place value of the smallest place. In this case, the 5 is in the ten thousandths place.
10825/10000

You can always double check that fraction on a calculator.
