There is a line that includes the point (2, 10) and has a slope of 1. What is its equation in
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The line is y=1x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use point-slope form of a line to make an equation. Point-slope form is as follows:

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

**The variables y₁ and x₁ are where we will plug in our given coordinates and the variable m is your slope.

1. Plug in the given info:

y-10=1(x-2)

2. Distribute the 1:

y-10=1x-2

3. Add 10 to both sides:

y=1x+8

Emery bought 3 cans of beans that had a total weight of 2.4 pounds. If each can of beans weighed the same amount, which model co
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

  • y=0.8x
  • See Explanation for others

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 cans of beans had a total weight of 2.4 Pounds

Therefore:

  • 1 can of beans = (2.4 ÷ 3) =0.8 Pounds

The following applies from the options.

  • y=0.8x where y is the weight and x is the number of cans.
  • A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of cans with entries 5, 15, 20. Column 2 is labeled total weight (in pounds) with entries 4, 12, 16.

Using y=0.8x

When x=5, y=0.8 X 5=4

When x=15, y=0.8 X 15=12

When x=20, y=0.8 X 20=16

\left|\begin{array}{c|c}\text{Number of Cans,x}&\text{Total Weight (in Pounds),y}\\-------&--------\\5&4\\15&12\\20&16\end{array}\right|

  • On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled number of cans and the y-axis is labeled total weight (in pounds. A line goes through points (5, 4) and (15, 12). This can be clearly seen from the table above as (5,4) and (15,12) are points on the line.
