I think the slope is m=-3 I hope it’s correct
For this problem, all you need to do is find the three #'s that add up to 156.
So, lets look at the answers and add them up.
A. 50, 52, 54
50 + 52 + 54 = 156
B. 51,52,53
51 + 52 + 53 = 156
C. 49,50,51
49 + 50 + 51 = 150
D. 49,51,53
49 + 51 + 53 = 153
We get the answers (50,52,54) and (51,52,53)
Now, consecutive numbers are numbers that in order, like 1,2,3.
Therefore, the answer is (51,52,53)
Second one because it don’t talk about minus when it talks about the three
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 5%/100 = 0.05 per year,
then, solving our equation
I = 20 × 0.05 × 2 = 2
I = $ 2.00
The simple interest accumulated
on a principal of $ 20.00
at a rate of 5% per year
for 2 years is $ 2.00.
Point slope form: y1-y2=m(x1-x2)
Given the slope -4 and the set of coordinates (4,-9),
y+9=-4(x-4)
I plugged in the slope and coordinates. Since -9 came after a subtraction sign, I corrected the subtraction to addition, leaving the above point slope form equation.
I hope this helps :)
