The equation of a line is written as y = Mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Replace y and x with the given point and m with the given slope to solve for b:

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

Simplify:

-2 = -2 + b

Add 2 to both sides:

B =0

The equation becomes: y = -1/2x

Answer:

y=-1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

y-(-2)=-1/2(x-4)

y+2=-1/2x+2

y=-1/2x

Olegator [25]

Answer:

(a) 74553

(b) 172120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259t}}$

Solving (a): 1998

Year 1998 means that:

$t =1998 - 1980$

$t =18$

So, we have:

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*18}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-4.662}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 3.562}$

$y = \frac{340110}{4.562}$

$y = 74553$ --- approximated

Solving (b): 2003

Year 2003 means that:

$t = 2003 - 1980$

$t =23$

So, we have:

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*23}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-5.957}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 0.976}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1.976}$

$y = 172120$ --- approximated

Solving (c): 2006

Year 2006 means that:

$t = 2006 - 1980$

$t =26$

So, we have:

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*26}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-6.734}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 0.4485}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1.4485}$

$y = 234802$ --- approximated

FACTOR the expression 6x+3y-12 using the greatest common multiple.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For 6x+3y-12 the greatest common factor is 3 so

3(2x+y-4)

For -2+6x+4+4x

10x+2 and 2 is greatest common factor so

2(5x+1)

Explain how place value could be used to find the difference between 4.23 into 2.75

Tomtit [17]

Because without place value you might put the decimal in the wrong place and that will effect the answer big time.

Use always, sometimes or never to make a true statement:

viva [34]

Answer:

1. Intersecting lines are always coplanar

2. Two planes never intersect in exactly one point

3. Three points are always coplanar

4. A plane containing two points of a line always contains the entire line

5. Four points are sometimes coplanar

6. Two lines never meet in more than one point.

7. Two skew lines are never coplanar

8. Line TQ and Line QT are always the same line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: Coplanar means "In the same plane"

1. Each line exist in many planes. But different lines must share at least one plane for them to intersect. That is why intersecting lines are always coplanar.

2. Two planes never intersect at exactly one point because only lines intersect at a point. Planes can only intersect along a line.

3.Three points are always coplanar because in geometry, a group of points are coplanar because there is a geometric plane that they all lie on.

4. A plane containing two points of a line always contains the entire line. Yes

5. Four points are only sometimes coplanar because there is a probability that they may all not lie on the same plane

6. Two lines never meet in more than one point because lines are basically straight and cannot bend over to intersect at another point

7. Two skew lines are never coplanar because skews lines are lines that do not intersect and are never parallel.

8. Line TQ and Line QT are always the same line because a line is straight and extends from one point to the other. So, if a line is labelled TQ calling it QT means the same thing

What’s the compound inequality for this??

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

-2 < x<4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have open circles and -2 and 4 so we don't include those numbers

The line is in between so the x is in between

-2 < x<4
