Answer:

y = 4.125x + 496.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the data up as points. Then deal with the points.

Givens

(30,620)

(70,785)

y2 = 785

y1 = 620

x2 = 70

x1 = 30

Formula

Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Solution

Slope = (785 - 620)/(70 - 30)

Slope = 165 / 40

Slope = 4.125

===================

Now you need the y intercept. Either one of the two given points will give you that.

y = 620

x = 30

m = 4.125

y = mx + b

620 = 4.125*30 + b

620 = 123.75 + b

620 - 123.75 + b

b = 496.25

A triangle has a base of 7 1/8 feet and height 7 1/5 ft. what is the area as a mixed number
sleet_krkn [62]

The answer is 25 13/20 square feet.

In order to complete this operation, it is first best to change your mixed numbers into improper fractions.

7 1/8 = 57/8

7 1/5 = 36/5

Now that we have these, we can put them into the triangle formula.

A = 1/2bh

A = (1/2)(57/8)(36/5)

A = 1026/40

You can then simplify this fraction by dividing the top and bottom by a factor of 2.

A = 513/20

Then, because we know 20 goes into 500, 25 times, we can pull that out and be left with a remainder of 13/20.

A = 25 13/20

Write a quadratic function in vertex form whose graph has the vertex (-3,5) and passes through the point (0,-14)
dsp73

Answer:

f(x) = -19/9(x + 3)² + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertex, (-3, 5) and the point, (0, 14):

Use the following quadratic equation formula in vertex form:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

where:

(h, k) = vertex

a = determines whether the graph opens up or down, and makes the graph wide or narrow.

<em>h</em><em> </em>= determines how far left or right the parent function is translated.

<em>k</em> =  determines how far up or down the parent function is translated.

Plug in the values of the vertex, (-3, 5) and the given point, (0, 14) to solve for <em>a</em>:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

14 = a(0 + 3)² + 5

14 = a(3)² + 5

14 = a(9) + 5

Subtract 5 from both sides:

-14 - 5 = 9a

-19 = 9a

Divide both sides by 9 to solve for a:

-19/9 = 9a/9

-19/9 = a

Therefore, the quadratic function in vertex form is:

f(x) = -19/9(x + 3)² + 5

The diameter of a sphere is 2,160 mm. The diameter of a second sphere is 7,520 mm. Approximately how many times larger is the vo
fgiga [73]

Answer:

Approximately 42 times larger

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of a sphere is 2,160 mm.

The diameter of a second sphere is 7,520 mm.

To see how many times larger is the diameter of second sphere is than the diameter of the second sphere, we divide to get:

k =  \frac{7520}{2160}

k = 3.481

To see how many times larger the volume is, we cube both sides

{k}^{3}  =  {3.481}^{3}

This implies that

{k}^{3}  = 42.181

Therefore the volume of the second sphere is approximately 42 times larger

You bought a magazine for $5 and four erasers. you spent a total of $25.

Magazine cost: 5$ each
Eraser cost: X$ each

Total cost is the number of items (1 magazine) times the cost of each item (5$). We don't know the cost of each eraser, so we represent that using a variable, X.

1(5) + 4(X) = 25

5 + 4X = 25

subtract 5 from both sides

4X = 25 - 5

4X = 20

divide both sides by 4

X = 20/4

X = 5

Each eraser cost 5$
