Explain how to write a linear equation for a line on a graph.

Mathematics
1 answer:
WARRIOR [948]2 years ago
3 0

Use y = mx + b.

<u>m represents the slope of the line.</u>

the slope equals rise over run.

in other words, count the number of vertical and horizontal units from one point to another point on the line.

if you have the y-intercept and a point, you can also solve for m.

<u>b represents the y-intercept.</u>

find the point on the graph where x = 0.

b is the value of y.

for example, if the y-intercept was (0,4) then b would equal 4.

<u>x and y represent a point on the graph.</u>

pick any point on the graph and plug it in.

for example, if the point (1,2) is on the graph then x = 1 and y = 2.

To get a B in​ math, Alexandria Pappas must average 80 on five tests. Scores on the first four tests were 82​,74​,82​,and 74.Wha
motikmotik

Answer:

88 score.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

To get a B in​ math, Alexandria Pappas must<u> average 80</u> on five tests.

Scores on the first four tests were <em>82​, 74​, 82​, and 74.</em>

Question asked:

What is the lowest score that she can get on the last test and still get a​ B?

Solution:

Let lowest score she can get on the last test = x

As we know:

Average=\frac{Sum\ of \ observations}{Number\ of\ observations}\\ \\ 80=\frac{82+74+82+74+x}{5} \\ \\

By cross multiplication:-

80\times5=312+x \\ \\400=312+x\\Subtracting\ both\ sides\ by\ 312\\400-312=312-312+x\\88=x

Thus, she can get 88 score on the last test to get a B in​ math.

A person invests 10000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 4.5% interest compounded
Greeley [361]

The person would have to leave the money in the bank for 7.8 years for it to reach 13,500 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; First we must calculate how much interest is generated for a single year. The annual interest rate is 4.5% i.e. 4.5% of 10,000 dollars which equals 0.045 × 10,000 = 450 dollars a year. As the years pass, more and more will be put into the account due to interest.

Step 2; For there to be 13,500 dollars in the bank account we need to calculate how much money is added due to interest.

The money needed to be added through interest = 13,500 - 10,000 = 3,500 dollars.

So we need to determine how long it will take for the bank to add 3,500 dollars by adding 450 dollars a year.

The number of years to reach 13,500 dollars = \frac{3,500}{450} = 7.777 years. By rounding this value to the nearest tenth, we get 7.8 years.
