Answer:

2. y = -1/2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we want to find the slope of the line.

To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Plug in these values using two points (-4, 1) & (2, -2)

(-2 - 1) / (2 - (-4))

Simplify the parentheses.

= (-2 - 1) / (2 + 4)

= (-3) / (6)

Simplify the fraction.

-3/6

= -1/2

This is your slope. Plug this value into the standard slope-intercept equation of y = mx + b.

y = -1/2x + b

b is the y-intercept when the line crosses the y-axis.

From the graph, we can see that the point on the y-axis is (0, -1)

Therefore, b is -1.

Plug this into the equation.

y = -1/2x - 1

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Points :-

( -2,0)
(0,-1)

Calculation of Slope :-

m = 0+1/-2-0
m = 1/-2
m = -1

Y intercept :-

y intercept = -1

Using Slope Intercept Form :-

y = mx + c
y = -1/2x + -1

Find the value of y in the given triangle

Andre45 [30]

Given:

In the given triangle,

With respect to y, Perpendicular = 10 cm and Base = 8 cm

To find the value of y.

Formula

By Trigonometric Ratio we get,

$tan\theta = \frac{Perpendicular}{Base}$

Now,

Putting the values of perpendicular and base we get,

$tan\theta = \frac{10}{8}$

or, $\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{10}{8})$

or, $\theta = 51.34 ^\circ$

Rounding off to the nearest tenth, we have;

$\theta = 51.3 ^\circ$

Hence,

The value of y is 51.3°.

On March 17th, Pinny Sporting Goods accepted a credit card purchase for $900. The credit card company charges a 2% service fee.

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

A : debit to Service Charge Expense of $18.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, one should calculate the value, in dollars of the credit card service fee

Fee = 2% x $900 = $18.

Since this fee is classified as "money coming out" of the account, the entry to a record of this transaction should include a debit to Service Charge Expense of $18.

The correct answer is alternative A.

*The whole purchase amount ($900) should be credited and the service expense should be debited, unlike alternative C, which merges both entries into one.
