Answer:

3x + 2y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept of the line occurs at y = 0

Given the equation 3x+2y = 6

3x+2(0) = 6

3x  = 6

x = 2

The x intercept is at (2, 0)

Adding -2 to each axis will give (2-2, 0-2) = (0, -2)

y intercept of the line occurs at x = 0

Given the equation 3x+2y = 6

3(0)+2y = 6

2y  = 6

y =3

The x intercept is at (0, 3)

Adding -2 to each axis will give (0-2, 3-2) = (-2, 1)

The new coordinates are (0, -2 and (-2, 1)

Using the point slope form of the equation y - y0 = m(x-x0)

slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 1-(-2)/-2-0

m = 1+2/-2

m = -3/2

Using m = -3/2 and (0, -2)

y - (-2) = -3/2(x-0)

y+2 = -3/2 x

2(y+2) = -3x

2y+4 = -3x

-3x-2y = 4

3x + 2y = -4

Hence the required equation is 3x + 2y = -4

Rename 7/20 as a percent
igomit [66]

Step-by-Step Explanation:

a) Rename \frac{7}{20} as a percent

\frac{7}{20}\times 100\\\\=7\times 5\\\\=35\%

b) Rename .245 as a percent

.245\times 100\\\\=\frac{245}{1000}\times 100\\\\=24.5\%

c) Rename 28% as a fraction and a decimal in simplest form

28\%=\frac{28}{100}=\frac{7}{4}\text{ as a fraction}\\\\\frac{7}{4}=1.75\text{ as a decimal}

d) Put .367,36.5%, \frac{9}{25} in order least to greatest.

\text{ First we put change all into percent form}\\\\.367\times 100=\frac{367}{1000}\times 100=36.7\%\\\\\frac{9}{25}\times 100=9\times 4=36\%

Now, we have 36.7%, 36.5%, 36%

We have write it in ascending order i.e. least to greatest ,

Here it is,

36%, 36.5%, 36.7%

\frac{9}{25},36.5\%\ and\ .367
