Hello!

Here is the formula for finding slope:

<u>y₂ - y₁</u>
x₂ - x₁

OR

<u>difference in y</u>
difference in x
__________________________________________________________

y₂ = -2
y₁ = 1

(-2) - 1 = -2 + -1 = -3

x₂ = 4
x₁ = -3

4 - (-3) = 4 + 3 = 7

That equals: -3/7

\framebox{Slope = -3/7}

Finding the slope using two points:

The formula for slope is

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

In this case...

y_{2} =-2\\y_{1} =1\\x_{2} =4\\x_{1} =-3

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula for slope...

\frac{-2-1}{4 - (-3)}

\frac{-3}{7}

^^^This is your slope

Hope this helped!

A man invests his savings in two accounts ,one paying6% and the other paying 10% simple interest per year. He puts twice as much
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer: he invested $46062.5 at 6% and $23031.25 at 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 6% interest.

Let y represent the amount which he invested in the account paying 10% interest.

He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky.. This means that

x = 2y

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Considering the account paying 6% interest,

P = $x

T = 1 year

R = 6℅

I = (x × 6 × 1)/100 = 0.06x

Considering the account paying 10% interest,

P = $y

T = 1 year

R = 10℅

I = (y × 10 × 1)/100 = 0.1y

His annual interest is $7370dollars. it means that

0.06x + 0.2y = 7370 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 2y into equation 1, it becomes

0.06 × 2y + 0.2y = 7370

0.12y + 0.2y = 7370

0.32y = 7370

y = 7370/0.32

y = $23031.25

x = 2 × 23031.25

x = 46062.5

The supplement of an angle is 3 times the complement of an angle.
-Dominant- [34]
Let’s says that x is the measure of the angle. X and it’s supplement are equal to 180. X and it’s complement are equal to 90. The supplement is s and the complement is c. S is times c which is the same as 3c.

3c + x = 180

C+x = 90
X = 90 - c

3c + 90 - c = 180
2c = 90
C = 45

The complement of. 45 degree angle is 45 degrees.

The angle is 45 degrees.

1/7 x X =1 <br> X x 1/11=1<br> 1 divided by 1/5=
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

  1. x = 7
  2. x = 11
  3. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{7}  \times x = 1

7 \times  \frac{1}{7} x = 7 \times 1

7 \times  \frac{1}{7} x = 7

\boxed{\green{x = 7}}

◇◇•◇◇

x \times  \frac{1}{11}  = 1

\frac{1}{11} x  = 1

11 \times  \frac{1}{11} x = 11 \times 1

11 \times  \frac{1}{11} x = 11

\boxed{\green{x = 11}}

♤♤•♤♤

1 \div  \frac{1}{5}  = 1 \times  \frac{5}{1}

1 \times 5

\boxed{\green{= 5}}

USE THE IMAGE ATTACHED BELOW please help me with my work answer it correctly I HAVE SO MUCH WORK DURING QUARANTINE
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Question 1:

a. The answer is B because the graph inclined really quickly and then it inclined at a much slower pace, suggesting that the person was running and then walking.

b. The answer is C because you can see on the graph that after a while, the distance from the starting point goes back to 0, indicating that the person forgot something at home.

Question 2:

a. The dashed line reaches the bottom at 15:30 so the answer is C.

b. Siobhan travels 8 km to go from home to school so the answer is 2 * 8 = 16 which is option D.

Question 3:

The answer is C because after the distance from the starting point increased, it then decreased and came back to the original point suggesting that he walked, turned around and walked back to the starting point.
