Answer:

y - 3 = 6(x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line which is the changes of the line along the Y and X axes through a point is given as m where

m = (y - y₁)/(x - x₁) where y ₁ and x₁ are the given points the line passes through.

Given that m = 6, (x₁,y₁) = (8,3)

Then,

6 = (y - 3)/(x - 8)

6(x - 8) = y - 3

Hence the right option is y - 3 = 6(x - 8)

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points $(-4,\ -1)$ and $\left(\dfrac{1}{2},\ 3\right)$ .

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{3-(-1)}{\frac{1}{2}-(-4)}=\dfrac{4}{4\frac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{4}{\frac{9}{2}}=4\cdot\dfrac{2}{9}=\dfrac{8}{9}\\\\y-(-1)=\dfrac{8}{9}(x-(-4))\\\\y+1=\dfrac{8}{9}(x+4)$

The standard form: Ax + By = C

$y+1=\dfrac{8}{9}(x+4)\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 9}\\\\9y+9=8(x+4)\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\9y+9=8x+32\qquad\text{subtract 9 from both sides}\\\\9y=8x+23\qquad\text{subtract 8x from both sides}\\\\-8x+9y=23\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\boxed{8x-9y=23}$

Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through (-1, -2) and (3, 4)

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation is:

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Given the points

(-1, -2)

(3, 4)

Determining the slope between (-1, -2) and (3, 4)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-1,\:-2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(3,\:4\right)$

$m=\frac{4-\left(-2\right)}{3-\left(-1\right)}$

$m=\frac{3}{2}$

Thus, the slope of the line is:

m = 3/2

substituting m = 3/2 and the point (3, 4) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

$4=\frac{3}{2}\left(3\right)+b$

switch sides

$\frac{3}{2}\left(3\right)+b=4$

$\frac{9}{2}+b=4$

subtract 9/2 from both sides

$\frac{9}{2}+b-\frac{9}{2}=4-\frac{9}{2}$

$b=-\frac{1}{2}$

now substituting m = 3/2 and b = -1/2 in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

$y = mx+b$

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:+\:\left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)$

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the slope-intercept form of the line equation is:

$y=\:\frac{3}{2}x\:-\frac{1}{2}$

An account earns simple interest. $1800 at 6.5% for 30 months Find the interest earned.

horrorfan [7]

Okay. The formula for simple interest is prt. You multiply the principal (initial amount) by the rate (percentage) by the time (months or years). $1,800 is the principal and 6.5% is the percentage rate. 1,800 * 6.5% (0.065) is 117. You earn $117 in interest annually. The time period is 30 months. There are 12 months in 1 year. Divide the amount of months by 12 to put it in a decimal. 30/12 is 2.5. Now, multiply 117 by 2.5 to find the total amount of interest earned. 117 * 2.5 is 292.5. There. The total amount of interest earned is $292.50.
