Given two (different) points, there is only one line passing through them. So, the linear equation modelling your dataset would be the line passing through the two data points.

In order to find the line, you can use the following equaiton: given two points A = (A_x, A_y)\ ,B=(B_x,B_y), the line passing through them is given by

\dfrac{y-A_y}{B_y-A_y} = \dfrac{x-A_x}{B_x-A_x}

For example, given the points A = (1,1) and B = (5,7), you have

\dfrac{y-1}{7-1} = \dfrac{x-1}{5-1} \iff \dfrac{y-1}{6} = \dfrac{x-1}{4} \iff 4(y-1) = 6(x-1)

Now, if you want, you can rearrange this in the form

4y-4 = 6x-6 \iff 4y = 6x-2 \iff y = \dfrac{3x}{2} - \dfrac{1}{2}

  • Step-by-step explanation:

<em>372 : 5 = 74 r 2</em>

<em>74 : 5 = 14 r 4</em>

<em>14 : 5 = 2 r 4</em>

<em>2 : 5 = 0 r 2 ↑</em>

<em>write down the remainders in the reverse order</em>

The sum of three consecutive even numbers is 114 what's the smallest of these numbers​
laila [671]

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

consecutive even numbers are 2,4, 6...

Let the smallest of the 3 numbers be x.

2nd number= x+2

3rd number

=x+2+2

= x+4

sum of the 3 numbers= x +x+2 +x+4

114= 3x+6

3x= 114 -6 (-3 on both sides)

3x= 108 (simplify)

x= 108 ÷3

x= 36

Thus, the smallest number is 36.

Let's check!

36+38+40= 114 ✓
