PART A:
The generic equation of the line is:
y-yo = m (x-xo)
First we look for the slope of the line:
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
m = ((5000) - (6000)) / (4-3)
m = -1000
Then, we substitute any point in the generic equation:
(xo, yo) = (4, 5000)
Substituting:
y-5000 = (- 1000) (x-4)
Rewriting:
y = -1000x + 4000 + 5000
y = -1000x + 9000
The equation is:
y = -1000x + 9000
PART B:
For the price of 3.50 we have:
y = -1000 * (3.5) +9000
y = 5500
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find each of the following as a rational number in the form of p/q
(a) (3/7)² (b) (7/9)³ (c) (-2/3)⁴
Solution,
(a) (3/7)²
(b) (7/9)³
(c) (-2/3)⁴
Hence, this is the required solution.
If Mallory makes $42.50 per hour and she works 20 hours a week, we multiple those two and we get:
42.5 * 20 = 850
So she earns $850 per week.
Mallory saves half of that amount she would have $425 per week.
In 4 weeks she would have:
425 * 4 = 1700
Mallory will save $1,700 in four weeks.
Substitute the first equation into the second equation. You will get:
4x - (2x - 5) = 7
Distribute the negative sign into the parenthesis:
4x - 2x + 5 = 7
Simplify
2x + 5 = 7
Subtract 5 on both sides
2x = 2
x = 1
Now, substitute x = 1 into the first equation:
y = 2(1) - 5
y = 2 - 5
y = -3
The solution to the system of equations is (1, -3).
Since it is a 45-45-90 right triangle, the formula is:
Hypotenuse= sqrt2 * leg
Since you know hypotenuse = 9sqrt2 the leg has to be 9
