Answer:

The answer to your question is  7 and -1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

First line                        Second line

B (4, 4)                            A (0, 1)

M (3.5, 0.5)                     C (7, 0)

Formula

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

Process

1.- Calculate the slope of the first-line

    x1 = 4        y1 = 4

    x2 = 3.5    y2 = 0.5

-Substitution

    m = (0.5 - 4) / (3.5 - 4)

-Simplification

     m = -3.5 / -0.5

-Result

     m = 7

2.- Calculate the slope of the second line

    x1 = 0          y1 = 1

    x2 = 7         y2 = 0

-Substitution

   m = (0 - 1) / (7 - 0)

-Simplification

   m = -1/7

-Result

   m = -1/7

Write an equation of the line that passes through the points (2, -3) and is parallel to the x axis.
podryga [215]

Answer:

y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is parallel to the x-axis then it is a horizontal line with slope 0. These lines have form y=b where b is the y-intercept or y value of all points. y=-3 is the line since (2,-3) is on the line.

At the end of year 1, Boller Co. had an ending balance in allowance for uncollectible accounts of $30,000. During year 2, Boller
Masja [62]

Answer:

$34,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First they had 30,000

Then wrote off 40,000

So balance is 30,000 - 40,000 = -10,000

Now, they want 8% of 300,000 as uncollectible. So that would be

0.08 * 300,000 = 24,000

Thus, to bring the balance to 24,000 [balance is -10,000], how much would they need to add?? Let it be x:

-10,000 + x = 24,000

x = 24,000 + 10,000 = $34,000

A square park is 75 m long. Find the area of the park.<br>​
Inga [223]
5625 m^2

If is is square, all sides must be congruent (all sides are 75m). To find area, you multiply width x length (how long). Therefore:

75m x 75m = 5626 m^2
