Answer:
M= -7
Step-by-step explanation:
M+9=2
M =2-9
M=-7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form 
or 
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
In this problem we have
Substitute the values and solve for k
therefore
the equation of the line is equal to
Amount of sales of newspapers for the month of January = $8341.50
Percentage of profit for which the newspaper is sold = 0.5%
Then
Amount of profit made in the month of January = 0.5% * 8341.50 dollars
= (0.5/100) * 8341.50 dollars
= 4170.75/100 dollars
= 41.707 dollars
= 41.71 dollars
So the shop makes a profit of $41.71 in the month of January by selling newspapers worth $8341.50. I hope the procedure is perfectly clear for you to understand.
The first step is to find the slope. Use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
The two points are (x1,y1) = (-1,5) and (x2,y2) = (2,-1)
So,
x1 = -1
y1 = 5
and
x2 = 2
y2 = -1
will be plugged into the slope formula to get...
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-1-5)/(2-(-1))
m = (-1-5)/(2+1)
m = (-6)/(3)
m = -2
The slope is -2
Use m = -2 and one of the points to find the y intercept b. I'll use the point (x,y) = (-1,5) ---> x = -1, y = 5
y = mx+b ... slope intercept form
5 = -2*(-1)+b
5 = 2+b
5-2 = 2+b-2
3 = b
b = 3
The y intercept is 3
-----------------------------------
m = -2 is the slope
b = 3 is the y intercept
Therefore y = mx+b turns into y = -2x+3 as the equation that goes through the two points
