Answer:
y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777
Step-by-step explanation:
We already know the slope, so the only thing left to find is the y-intercept.
To find the y-intercept, we can <u>plug in the slope and point to the slope-intercept form equation</u> (y = mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-int.)
y = m * x + b
(7) = (-8/9)*(-7) + b
<u>Now, just solve for b!</u>
(7) = (-8/9)*(-7) + b
7 = 56/9 + b
7 - (56/9) = b
b = 0.777777 (repeating decimal, usually signified by a little line above the 7)
so now we just <u>plug in the slope and y-intercept we found into y = mx + b.</u>
y = mx + b
y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777
Answer: 1/4 chance of picking red
Step-by-step explanation: There are 120 buttons in all, so the fraction of red marbles is 30/120. 30/120 = 1/4
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches.
The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. This increase in height is linear, thus it is in arithmetic progression.
The expression for arithmetic progression is
Tn = a + (n-1)d
Where a = the first term of the series
d = common difference
Tn is the nth term of the series
n = the number of terms.
From the information given
a = 14 inches because it is the initial height of the tree
d = 2.5 because it is the difference in height between 2 consecutive months
n = m( number of months)
Tn = f(m)
function models the relationship between the height of the tree f(m) and the number of m months of growth will be
f(m) = 14 + 2.5(m-1)
Answer:
20.625 dollars or about 20.63 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
33/8 = 4.125
4.125 times 5 = 20.625
Y = 3bx - 7x
y = x(3b - 7)
Divide each side by 3b - 7 (assume that it is not zero).
