Answer: D. y = 3x − 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where c = intercept
Slope, m =change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis
change in the value of y = y2 - y1
Change in value of x = x2 -x1
y2 = final value of y
y 1 = initial value of y
x2 = final value of x
x1 = initial value of x
From the graph,
y2 = 2
y1 = - 1
x2 = 1
x1 = 0
Slope,m = (2 - - 1)/(1 - 0) = 3/1 = 3
To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 1, y = 2 and m= 3 into y = mx + c
y = mx + c. It becomes
2 = 3 × 1 + c = 3 + c
c = 2 - 3 = - 1
The equation becomes
y = 3x - 1
We could use Algebra for this question but it’s quite simile so won’t need it. If Amanda is 25, when we add on 5 years she’ll be 30. Now it says when she’s 30, she will be twice as old as Simone. Implying that Simone will be half of Amanda’s age. In this case 30/2 = 15. So Simone must be 15.
Answer:
C
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 )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 8, - 42 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, - 17 ) ← 2 ordered pairs from the table
m = 
= 
= 
= 5
The line crosses the y- intercept at (0, - 2 ) , then
y = 5x - 2 → C
Answer:
88c = -300
105c = 81300
105b = 294
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to assume that x2 = x squared
So: X^2 + 3x -40
= (X+8)(X-5)=0
X+8 = 0
X= - 8
The other solution is X -5 = 0
X = 5
Therefore the solution set is {-8, 5}
