Give two points with integer coordinates that have a slope of 10/7 between them
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

(0,0) and (7,10)

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that the slope - intercept  form of a linear equation can be given as

y = mx + b

where m = slope and b = y intercept

in our case, we are given that slope, m = 10/7, hence our equation becomes

y = (10/7) x + b

since we are not given any information about the y-intercept, we can simply pick a value for b that is most convenient for us.

We pick b = 0, hence the equation simplifies to:

y = (10/7) x  ----- eq 1

we can see immediately that if x = 0, y must also = 0

proof if x = 0:

y = (10/7)(0) =0

since 0 is an integer, then (0,0) must be the first point.

we can also observe that for y to be an integer, we must get rid of the denominator 7. We can do this by multiply the right side by 7. Hence we let x = 7:

y = (10/7) x 7

y = 10

hence (7,10) is the second point.

Solve then check solution
klio [65]

Answer:

1. z = 128

2. x = 4.2

3. c = 10

4. w = 100

5. a = 95.2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Solve for z:

z/16 = 8

Multiply both sides of z/16 = 8 by 16:

(16 z)/16 = 16×8

(16 z)/16 = 16/16×z = z:

z = 16×8

16×8 = 128:

Answer:  z = 128

_____________________________________________________

2. Solve for x:

3.5 x = 14.7

Divide both sides of 3.5 x = 14.7 by 3.5:

(3.5 x)/3.5 = 14.7/3.5

3.5/3.5 = 1:

x = 14.7/3.5

14.7/3.5 = 4.2:

Answer:  x = 4.2

____________________________________________

3. Solve for c:

32 = 3.2 c

32 = 3.2 c is equivalent to 3.2 c = 32:

3.2 c = 32

Divide both sides of 3.2 c = 32 by 3.2:

(3.2 c)/3.2 = 32/3.2

3.2/3.2 = 1:

c = 32/3.2

32/3.2 = 10:

Answer:  c = 10

__________________________________________________

4. Solve for w:

(2 w)/5 = 40

Multiply both sides of (2 w)/5 = 40 by 5/2:

(5×2 w)/(2×5) = 5/2×40

5/2×2/5 = (5×2)/(2×5):

(5×2)/(2×5) w = 5/2×40

5/2×40 = (5×40)/2:

(5×2 w)/(2×5) = (5×40)/2

(5×2 w)/(2×5) = (2×5)/(2×5)×w = w:

w = (5×40)/2

2 | 2 | 0

| 4 | 0

- | 4 |  

| | 0

| - | 0

| | 0:

w = 5×20

5×20 = 100:

Answer: w = 100

___________________________________________________

5. Solve for a:

a/14 = 6.8

Multiply both sides of a/14 = 6.8 by 14:

(14 a)/14 = 14×6.8

(14 a)/14 = 14/14×a = a:

a = 14×6.8

14×6.8 = 95.2:

Answer:  a = 95.2

A shoe store marks up its merchandise by 8%. What was the selling price of a pair of shoes whose wholesale price is $24.50? Show
Alika [10]

Answer:

Result: $26.46

Steps:

$24.50 (increase) + 8% = $26.46

24.50 x (1 + 8%) = 24.50 x (1 + 0.08) = 26.46

I'm truly sorry if my math is incorrect.

Bye, have a great day/night  :)
