Answer:
slope: -(9/8)
y-intercept: 7
equation: y = -(9/8)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the slope.
<em>m</em> (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Let:
(x₁ , y₁) = (8 , -2)
(x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 7)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
<em>m </em>= (7 - (-2))/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = (7 + 2)/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = 9/-8
Your slope is -(9/8)
Solve for the y-intercept. Plug in your slope into the slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
Let:
(x , y) = (0 , 7) & m = -(9/8)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
7 = -(9/8)(0) + b
Simplify:
7 = (-9/8 * 0) + b
7 = (0) + b
b = 7
Your y-intercept is 7.

Here we don't know the length of the hypo, but do have measures of both legs of this right triangle: x and 40 yd.
Use the tangent function to determine the value of x:
x
--------- = tan 62 degrees. Solving for x: x = (40 yd)(tan 62 deg).
40 yd can you evaluate this yourself?

Possible values of the stamps are 1 more than the values of a pair of factors. Of course, a 2¢ and 55¢ stamp will not permit paying 54¢ in postage, so that combination won't work. However, other pairs that will work are ...
- 3¢ and 28¢
- 4¢ and 19¢
- 7¢ and 10¢
