Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The clue here is to determine how much he makes in 1 hour, then see if that amount works for 2 hours and 3 hours. If we know that he makes $31 in 2 hours, then 31/2 is $15.50. And $15.50 times 2 hours is $31, and $15.50 times 3 hours is $46.50. So the equation that represents the amount of money Tim makes is y = 15.5x, where y is the amount of money he makes when he works x number of hours at $15.50 per hour.

in the blanks below. Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-9, 2) and (9,2). slope:

user100 [1]

I will assume that we are trying to find the slope between (-9,2) and (9, 2)

The slope's equation ⇒ $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Let's set the variables:

(x1, y1) --> (-9, 2)

(x2, y2) --> (9, 2)

Now let's plug them in:

$Slope = \frac{2-2}{9--9} =\frac{0}{18} =0$

Thus the slope of the line is 0.

Hope that helps!

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through ( − 5 , 4 ) (−5,4)left parenthesis, minus, 5, comma, 4, right parenthesis

Tanzania [10]

The point slope form of equation through given points is:

$y-6=\frac{1}{3}(x-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are:

(x1,y1) = (-5,4)

(x2,y2) = ((1,6)

First of all we have to find the slope of line

So,

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\=\frac{6-4}{1+5}\\=\frac{2}{6}\\=\frac{1}{3}$

Point-slope form is given by:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Putting m=1/3

$y-y_1=\frac{1}{3}(x-x_1)$

Putting (1,6) in the equation

$y-6=\frac{1}{3}(x-1)$

The point slope form of equation through given points is:

$y-6=\frac{1}{3}(x-1)$

A parking garage charges $5 for the first hour of parking and $1.75 for each additional hour.If y represents the total cost and

jonny [76]

5 no mater what on first hour so, then on the second hour the 1.75 rate kicks in so therefor when x=1, then y=5 so y=5+0 times 1.75
so y=5+1.75 times (x-1)
the naswe ris
y=1.75(x-1)+5 or d
