Answer:

y = -2/5x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept follows the y = mx + b, which m is the slope, and b is the y intercept.

1. Find the slope:

The formula for slope is the change in y/ over the change in x. Or you can say rise/run.

In other words you can take any of those 2 dots, first count them to the other dot, which is -2, then count horizontally, which is 5, so the slope is -2/5

Another way:

Another way is to take any two points, like (-10, -2), and (-5, -4).

Then we can do -4 -(-2)/-5 -(-10), which is -2/5.

So the equation we have so far is y = -2/5x + b

2.Find the y intercept

Based on the graph, the y intercept is -6, so we get

y = -2/5x - 6

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 7−4x=7y 7 − 4x = 7 y through the point (2,0).

Aleks04 [339]

We are given the line 7-4x=7y.

If we write this line in the form y=mx+k, then m is the slope of the line.

7-4x=7y

7y=-4x+7

y=(-4/7)x+1

the slope of the line is -4/7

Any line parallel to this line must also have a slope equal to -4/7.

We want precisely the one passing through (2, 0) and having slope -4/7.

Using the point-slope form of the equation of a line:

(y-0)=-4/7(x-2)

y=(-4/7)x+8/7

Answer: y=(-4/7)x+8/7

another form is 4x+7y-8=0

What are rational numbers? Why is it important to study rational numbers?

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Any number that can be written as a fraction with integers is called a rational number . For example, 17 and −34 are rational numbers. (Note that there is more than one way to write the same rational number as a ratio of integers. For example, 17 and 214 represent the same rational number.)

Suppose you want to have $400,000 for retirement in 35years. Your account earns 4% interest.

Sedaia [141]

$\begin{equation*} \$437.76 \end{equation*}$

1) This is a question for Annuity usage. Note that we'll need the following formula below:

$\begin{gathered} P=\frac{A(\frac{r}{n})}{\lbrack(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}-1\rbrack} \\ P=\frac{400000(\frac{0.04}{12})}{\lbrack(1+\frac{0.04}{12})^{12\cdot35}-1\rbrack} \\ P=\frac{400000\cdot\frac{0.04}{12}}{\left(1+\frac{0.04}{12}\right)^{35\cdot\:12}-1} \\ P=\frac{400000\cdot\frac{0.04}{12}}{1.0033^{420}-1} \\ P=437.76563...\approx\$437.76 \end{gathered}$

Note that P is the value you'll need to deposit each month so that in 35 years you'll have $400,000 for your retirement.

LET x=0 x-2y=4 what is the value of y?

Amanda [17]

Answer:

When x = 0, then y = -2

When y = 0, then x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the following equation;

x - 2y = 4

Now, we have to find the respective values of x and y for each value of x = 0 and y = 0.

Firstly, putting the value of x = 0;

x - 2y = 4

0 - 2y = 4

-2y = 4

y = $\frac{4}{-2}$ = -2

This means that when x = 0, then y = -2.

Similarly, putting the value of y = 0;

x - 2y = 4

$x-(2\times 0)=4$

x - 0 = 4

x = 4

This means that when y = 0, then x = 4.
