Find the equation of the line passing through the points 1,-5) and (9,11). y = 2x + [?]

Mathematics

Naily [24]3 years ago

Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Looks like we already have the slope of this line:  It is 2.  Working with the point (1, -5), we have x = 1 and y = -5 and can from this info easily find the y-intercept, b:

y = mx + b becomes

y  = 2x + b, which in turn becomes

-5 = 2(1) + b, or

b = -7,

and so the desired equation is y = 2x - 7

The cost of having a package delivered has a base fee of $9.70. Every pound over 5 lbs cost an additional $0.46 per pound. Write
FrozenT [24]
The linear model of this case takes the form:

y = a(x-b) + k

<span>The cost of having a package delivered has a base fee of $9.70
this is "k" >>>>>  k=9.7 (fixed amount of fee)

THEN

</span>
<span>Every pound over 5 lbs cost an additional $0.46 per pound

that means: 0.46(x-5)
in other words, if the package weighs foe example 9 pounds, then 9-5=4, it will cost 0.46*4 for these 4 extra pounds

Finally we have the linear form of this: C = 0.46 (W - 5) + 9.7

A phone company offers two monthly plans. Plan A costs $10 plus an additional $0.15 for each minute of calls. Plan B costs $30 p
Mkey [24]

First, you need to write to expressions to model each situation:

Plan A: 10+0.15x

Plan B: 30+0.1x


Next, set the expressions equal to each other and solve for x:

10+0.15x=30+0.1x

<em>*Subtract 0.1x from both sides to isolate the variable*</em>

10+0.05x=30

<em>*Subtract 10 from both sides*</em>

0.05x=20

<em>*Divide both sides by 0.05*</em>

x=400


The plans would have the same cost after 400 minutes of calls.


To find how much money the plans cost at 400 minutes, plug 400 into either expression.  We'll use Plan A:

10+0.15(400)

10+60

70


The plans will cost $70.


Hope this helps!

if a coin is tossed 4 times, the odds of it coming up either heads every time or tails every time are 1:7.What is the probabilit
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

1

Explanation:

From the question, we have it that the probability of heads coming up every time or tail coming up every time is 1:7 if the coin is tossed in 4 tosses

What this means is that we have a probability of 1/8 of head showing up and a probability of 7/8 that a tail will show up in each toss of the coin

For four throws, it means all four are heads or all four are tails

If all four are heads, we have the probability of this happening as:

\text{ (}\frac{1}{8})^{}

if all four are tails, we have the probability as:

\frac{7}{8}

Now, the probability of either heads or all tails after 4 tosses will be:

\text{ }\frac{1}{8}\text{ + }\frac{7}{8}\text{ = 1}
