aleksley [76]

So, to do this, all you need to do is add up all the values, and then, with that number, divide by how many values are given.

150+165+165= 480
480/3= 160

Find the equation of a line that contains the points (3,7) and (-6, 4). Write the equation in slope-intercept form, using

NikAS [45]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(3,7)(-6,4)$

Step 1. Find the slope (by using the slope-formula)

m = slope

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{4-7}{-6-3}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-9}$

$m=\frac{3}{9}$

$m=\frac{1}{3}$

Step 2. Write the equation (using the slope and the points)

Here's how to do it:

Slope-intercept Formula $y=mx+b$ whrere m = slope and b = y-intercept

Plug in the slope into the Slope-intercept Formula

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+b$

Find the y-intercept (b) by using a point and substituting their x and y values

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+b$

Point: (3, 7)

$7=\frac{1}{3} (3)+b$

$7=1+b$

$b=7-1$

$b=6$

Step 3. Write the equation in Slope-intercept form

$y=mx+b$

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+6$

Anna [14]

Answer: 7.58 years

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to finding out how long it will take for an investment to double, one can use the Rule of 72.

The Rule of 72 estimates the amount of time it will take to double an investment when you divide 72 by the interest rate:

= 72 / r

= 72 / 9.5

= 7.58 years

For Jack's birthday, his mom is taking him and 12 friends to the zoo. If she pays $11 for each ticket using her credit card, wha

Gemiola [76]

Jack's mom is purchasing thirteen tickets at a price of $11 each. This equals a total of $143 in total spent. If Jack's mom has a credit card limit of $500, then after purchasing $143 with the card, her available amount to purchase additional things is $357. This impact on her available credit is due to credit cards working on an available balance system. When Jack's mom first received her credit card, a set balance or total amount she could purchase with the card was set. In this example, her total amount she could purchase with the card was $500. After her purchase of the tickets for $143 was completed, she subtracted that amount from her total available of $500 and that is why her available amount to purchase is now $357.
