(-4,-3)(12,1)
slope(m) = (1 - (-3) / (12 - (-4)
slope(m) = (1 + 3) / (12 + 4)
slope(m) = 4/16 = 1/4

y - y1 = m(x - x1)...using (12,1)
y - 1 = 1/4(x - 12)
y - 1 = 1/4x - 3
y = 1/4x - 3 + 1
y = 1/4x - 2
-1/4x + y = -2...multiply by -4
x - 4y = 8 <=== here it is

Answer:

Option  A is correct.

x – 4y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using point slope form:

The equation of line is given by:

y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)                  ....[1]

where, m is the slope.

As per the statement:

The point passes through the line are:

(-4, -3) and (12, 1)

Using Slope(m) formula:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substitute the given values we have;

m = \frac{1+3}{12+4}=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{1}{4}

Substitute the value of m and (12, 1) in [1] we have;

y-1 = \frac{1}{4}(x-12)

Multiply both sides by 4 we have;

4y-4 = x-12

Add 4 to both sides we have;

4y= x-8

⇒-x+4y = -8

Multiply both sides by -1 we have;

⇒x-4y =8

Therefore, the standard form of the equation for this line is, x – 4y = 8

ohn is interested in purchasing a multi-office building containing five offices. The current owner provides the following probab
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

$28,875

Step-by-step explanation:

The given table is:

\left|\begin{array}{c|cccccc}$Number of Lease Offices&0&1&2&3&4&5\\$Probability&5/32&3/16&3/32&1/4&9/32&1/32\end{array}\right|

The expected probability is derived using the formula: \sum_{i=0}^{5}x_iP(x_i)

Therefore, for the given distribution,

Expected Probability

=(0*\frac{5}{32})+ (1*\frac{3}{16})+ (2*\frac{3}{32})+ (3*\frac{1}{4})+ (4*\frac{9}{32})+ (5*\frac{1}{32})\\=2.40625

If each yearly lease is $12,000

The Expected Yearly Lease for the Whole Building=2.40625 X 12000

=$28,875

Part A: Solve –vp + 40 &lt; 95 for v. Show your work. (4 points) Part B: Solve 8w – 3r = 45 for r. Show your work. (6 points)
Ierofanga [76]
Subtract 40 from both sides
-vp+40-40<95-40

Simplify
-vp<55
Multiply both sides by -1 (reverse the inequality)

(-vp) (-1) > 55 (-1) 

Simplify
vp> -55 

Divide both sides by v

vp ÷ v > -55 <span>÷ v 
</span>
Simplify
p> -55 <span>÷ v </span>
