First, you would do y1-y2, which would be 6-4, which would be 2. Then you would do x1-x2, which would be 5-(-1), which equals 6. Then you would do 2/6, which equals 1/3. Then you would do (1/3)×-1, which would be -1/3. Then, 4-(-1/3), which would be 4 1/3. The equation is y=(1/3)x+4 1/3

Answer:

<h2>y = (1/3)x + 13/3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move from (-1, 4) to (5, 6), x increases by 6 and y increases by 2.

Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 2/6 = 1/3.

Starting from the slope-intercept form of the equation of a str. line,

y = mx + b

Substitute 6 for y and 5 for x, as well as 1/3 for m:

6 = (1/3)(5) + b.

Mult. both sides by 3, to eliminate fractions:

18 = 5 + 3b.  Then 3b must equal 13, and b = 13/3.

The desired equation is y = (1/3)x + 13/3.

Check:  Does the given point (-1, 4) satisfy this equation?

Is 4 = (1/3)(-1) + 13/3 true?

Is 4 = -1/3 + 13/3 true?  YES

Jennifer earns $17.35 per hour at her job. She works 6 hours per day, 5 days per week. What is Jennifer’s gross income for a 2 w
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

She makes $1041 in 2 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can work on finding how much she makes in a day. To find the daily income, we need to multiply 17.35 by 6 since she works 6 hours a day.

17.35x6=104.1

She makes $104.10 a day. Now we multiply by 5 since she works 5 days a week

104.10x5=520.50 a week

Since we are trying to find how much she makes in two weeks, we multiply the weekly income by 2

520.5x2=1041

She makes $1041 in 2 weeks
