X/y= 5/7

x+y=372

x=5/7y

5/7y+y=372


12/7y=372

y = 372(7/12)= 217


x= 155

The given numbers are in the ratio 5:7. Let the numbers be 5x and 7x, where x is a real number.

The sum of the numbers is 5x+7x=372.

Solve for x,

12x=372\\ x= \frac{372}{12}\\ x=31.

Therefore, the numbers are,

5*31,7*31 or the numbers are 155,217.

Write the equation in slope intercept form of a line that goes through (4,9) and has a slope of 1/2
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2} x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = \frac{1}{2}, hence

y = \frac{1}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (4, 9) into the partial equation

9 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 9 - 2 = 7

y = \frac{1}{2} x + 7 ← equation in slope-intercept form
