ANSWER:

Your answer is the 3rd one: y - 8 = -3/7(x - 5)

ABOUT POINT SLOPE FORM:

y - Y1 = m (x - X1)
m is the slope
Y1 & X1 is a point on the line
The form allows you to identify the slope & the point on the line

ABOUT PROBLEM:

-3/7 represents m in the slope intercept form
5 represents X1
8 represents Y1

y - Y1 = m (x - X1)

y - 8 = -3/7(x - 5) --- IN POINT SLOPE FORM

Hope this helps you!!! :)

Calculate the area of each shape below. Figures are not drawn to scale.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

The area of the triangle is 168 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the area of a triangle:

Area = 1/2 Base x Height

So, first you need to identify the base and the height. The base is 16m + 8m, and the height is 14m. All you have to do is plug in the numbers:

Area = 1/2 (16 + 8) x 14

Then, you solve:

Area = 1/2 (16 + 8) x 14

Area = 1/2 24 x 14

Area = 1/2 336

Area = 168 meters

So, the area of the triangle is 168 meters

Answer:

$C=0.65M+22.65$

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard charge includes an initial fee and plus an addditional fee for each mile driven and is given by:

$S=0.40M+17.75$

The insurance charge is given by:

$I=0.25M+4.90$

So, the total charge C will be the sum of the standard charge S and the insurance charge I:

$C=S+I$

Substitute:

$C=(0.40M+17.75)+(0.25M+4.90)$

Rearrange:

$C=(0.40M+0.25M)+(17.75+4.90)$

Add:

$C=0.65M+22.65$

And we have acauired our equation relating C to M!

In the exponential growth function y = 235(1.15)^x, what is the

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer: Growth factor will be 0.15 and percent increase will be 15%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

the exponential growth function

$y=235(1.15)^x$

1) We need to find the growth factor :

As we know the formula for "Compound Interest ":

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^x$

If we compare the formula with our given equation, we get

$1+\frac{r}{100}=1.15\\\\\frac{r}{100}=1.15-1\\\\\frac{r}{100}=0.15\\\\r=0.15\times 100\\\\r=15$

So, the growth factor is at the rate of 0.15.

2) Percent increase will be

$0.15=\frac{15}{100}\times 100\\\\=15\%$

Hence, growth factor will be 0.15 and percent increase will be 15%.
