Mathematics

Answer: y = -2x + 1  or y +2x - 1 = 0

Step-by-step explanation

Recall, equation of a line passing through two coordinates is

y - y₁ =  y₂ - y₁              ( x - x₁ )

           ₋₋₋₋₋₋₋₋     x  

           x₂ - x₁

note , (x₁ = -3), (x₂ = 1), (y₁ = 7), (y₂ = -1)

Now substitute for those values in the above equation

y - (7) = -1 - 7

            ------         X  ( x - (-3)

            1 - (-3)

y - 7   =  -8/4  X  ( x + 3 )

y - 7   = -2(x + 3 )

y - 7   = -2x - 6

The equation now

y  =  -2x -6 + 7

y = -2x + 1  or

y + 2x - 1 = 0.

If f(x) = 4 – x2 and g(x) = 6x, which expression is equivalent to (g – f)(3)?
tatiyna
F(x) = 4 - x²    g(x) = 6x

(g - f)(x) = g(x) - f(x)

(g - f)(3) = g(3) - f(3)

g(x) = 6x

g(3) = 6*3 = 18

f(x) = 4 - x²

f(3) = 4 - 3² = 4 - 9 = -5

(g - f)(3) = g(3) - f(3) = 18 - (-5) = 18 + 5 = 23

 (g - f)(3) = 23

X - 3 = 7 pls help step by step explanation
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to solve for x, you need to isolate the variable, meaning that it needs to be the only term on one side of the equation. To do this, we'll just cancel out the -3 by adding +3 on both sides of our equation.

x - 3 = 7

 +3    +3

x = 10

Leaving us with our answer, x = 10

Hope this helped :)

The number of CDs sold in 2010 was 114 million, down from 147 million the previous year. Find the Absolute and relative (percent
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Absolute decrease = 33 million

Relative decrease = 22.45%

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of CD's sold the previous year (2009) was 147 million, and in 2010 it was 114 million. The absolute decrease is 147 million -114 million = 33 million.

The relative decrease is just the percent decrease and it is:

33 million/147 million =22.45% decrease.

Erin Lytle's gross pay is $26,300. She takes a married exemption of $4,000. Her state income tax rate is 5.5%. How much will she
Stells [14]

Given

Erin Lytle's gross pay is $26,300

She takes a married exemption of $4,000

state income tax rate is 5.5%

Find out she pay in state income tax

To proof

Gross pay =  $26,300

married exemption =  $4,000

 Let the  she pay in state income tax = x

5.5 % written in the simpler form

= \frac{5.5}{100}

= 0 .055

than the equation becomes

x =  0.055 ( 26300 - 4000)

x =  0.055× 22300

x = $1226.5

Erin Lytle  pay in state income tax is $ 1226.5

Hence proved
