Slope intercept form isy=mx+b
m=slope
b=y intercept
ok so to find the slope when given 2 points you do
slope=(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)

(x,y)
(-1,-9)
(2,6)
x1=-1
y1=-9
x2=2
y2=6
subsitute
slope=(-9-6)/(-1-2)
slope=(-13)/(-3)
slope=13/3


y=13/3x+b
subsitute a given point to find b
(2,6)
x=2
y=6
6=13/3(2)+b
6=26/3+b
subtract 26/3 from both sides
6-26/3=b
6=18/3
18/3-26/3=8/3
8/3=b

the equation si
y=(13/3)x+8/3

An auto mechanic converts a metric part to 0.492 in. The part comes only in fractional sizes given to the nearest 64th of an inc
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

the closest part the mechanic can chose is 0.5 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

fractional sizes given to the nearest 64th of an inch = 1/64 = 0.0156

the closest size to 0.492in = 0.492 + 0.0156 = 0.5076 inches

approximately, the closest part the mechanic can chose is 0.5 inch

❖ To find the mean, add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers there are. To find the range, subtract the highest number by the  lowest number in the data set.

2. Mean = 35  Range = 78

3. Mean = 43  Range = 58

4. Mean = 63  Range = 73

5. Mean = 61   Range = 56

6. Mean = 55  Range = 83

7. Mean = 61   Range = 53

8. Mean = 60  Range = 75

9. Mean = 50  Range = 76

10. Mean = 50  Range = 81

Determine the equation of the line that passes through the point (7, -23)and is perpendicular to the line y=1/3x-6Enter your ans
marishachu [46]

We have a line y = 1/3x -6

We want a line that is perpendicular to this line

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

1/3 * m = -1

3 * 1/3 *m = -1 * 3

m = -3

The slope of the perpendicular line is -3

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -3x+b

We have a point on the line ( 7 ,-23)

Substitute this point into the equation

-23 = -3(7)+b

-23 = -21+b

Add 21 to each side

-23+21 = -21+21+b

-2 = b

y = -3x-2

In slope intercept form, the line perpendicular passing through (7,-23) is

y = -3x-2

Solve the system by substitution.<br><br> 6x + 3y = -6<br> 2x + y = -2
Mariana [72]
Solutions 

First Lets solve for this equation 6x + 3y = -6&#10; 

6x + 3y = -6&#10; 

6x+3(-2-2x)=-6&#10;&#10; &#10; 

-6=-6 

Therefore this given equation is a <span>dependent system. 
</span>
<span>Solve for </span>2x + y = -2 

2x+y=-2 

y=-2-2x&#10;&#10; &#10;&#10; &#10; 

There are too many solutions to these equations.
