Answer:

<h2>y = -1/3 x + 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of  a line in slope-intercept form is expressed as y = mx+c

m is the slope of the line

c is the intercept

m = Δy/Δx = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

Given the points on a line to be  (3,1) and (−6,4);

x₁ = 3, y₁ = 1, x₂ = -6 and y₂ = 4

m = 4-1/-6-3

m = 3/-9

m = -1/3

To get the intercept c, we will substitute any of the points given and the value of the slope into the equation y = mx+c. Using the point (3, 1) and m = -1/3

1 = -1/3(3)+c

1 = -1+c

c  = 1+1

c =2

Substituting m = -1/3 and c = 2 into the sllpe intercept form of the equation will give;

y = -1/3 x + 2

Hence the  equation for the line in slope-intercept form is y = -1/3 x + 2

4. In a women's professional tennis tournament, the money a player wins depends on her finishing place in the
Stels [109]

Using geometric sequence concepts, it is found that:

a) The rule is: P_n = 750000(0.5)^{n-1}.

b) An exponential relationship exists between the two variables.

<h3>What is a geometric sequence?</h3>

A geometric sequence is a sequence in which the result of the division of consecutive terms is always the same, called common ratio q.

The nth term of a geometric sequence is given by:

a_n = a_1q^{n-1}

In which a_1 is the first term.

A geometric sequence represents an exponential relationship between the variables.

In this problem, considering that the first-place finisher wins half of $1.500.000 in total prize money, and each finisher earns half of the one who finished above, the first term and the common ratio are given by:

a_1 = 750000, q = 0.5.

Hence the nth term of the sequence is given by:

P_n = 750000(0.5)^{n-1}

You purchase 5 pounds of cheese for $28. How much would 1 quart of cheese cost?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

You would get 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 5 pounds by $28 your answer will be :<em> </em><em>5</em><em>.</em><em>6</em>

Than you divide 5.6 by 4 because 4 quarters make 1 whole

So, you divide 5.6 by 4

Than you get the answer 1.4.
