Write the equation of the line with slope 8 and passes through the point ( - 9, - 7)

Mathematics
1 answer:
AleksAgata [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<h2>y = 9x + 65</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line given the slope and a point we use the formula

y -  y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the slope is 8 and the point is ( - 9 , - 7)

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve for the equation

We have

y  + 7 = 8(x + 9) \\ y + 7 = 9x + 72 \\ y = 9x + 72 - 7

We have the final answer as

<h3>y = 9x + 65</h3>

Hope this helps you

A bag contains purple marbles and blue marbles, 41 in total. The number of purple marbles is 4 less than 2 times the number of b
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

There are 26 purple marbles in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) We have purple (p) and blue (b) marbles in a bag, and 41 marbles total so:

p+b = 41

2) we want to know how many purple marbles we have, so let's rearrange for p:

p = 41 - b

3) Our problem gives us an expression for the purple marbles in terms of the blue,  let's write it using math symbols instead of words:

<em>"The number of purple marbles is 4 less than 2 times the number of blue marbles."</em>

so: p = 2b - 4

3) Now we're going to plug this in (or substitute it) for our p in our first equation, and solve for b

p = 41 - b

2b - 4 = 41 - b     (substitution)

2b = 45 - b         ( add 4 to both sides)

3b = 45               (add b to both sides)

b = 15                  (divide both sides by 3)

4, last step!)

Now we know we have 15 blue marbles, that's great! But we still want to know how many purple marbles we have.

41- 15 = 26 purple marbles

John has $4000 in his savings account.each month he withdraws $70 from his account which is the type of function that models thi
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

y = 4000 - 70x

Linear function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of weeks.

In 1 week, he withdraws $70.

That means -70 in 1 week.

After the second week, he will have withdrawn 2 times $70, or

-70 × 2

After 3 week, he will have withdrawn -70 × 3

After x weeks, he will have withdrawn $70 × x,or simply -70x.

He starts with 4000, so after x weeks, he has 4000 - 7x.

Let y = the amount of money at week x.

The equation is

y = 4000 - 70x

This is a linear function.
