Answer:

The equation of the line that goes through points (1,1) and (3,7) is \mathbf{y=3x-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the equation of the line that goes through points (1,1) and (3,7)

We can write the equation of line in slope-intercept form y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding Slope

Slope can be found using formula: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have x_1=1, y_1=1, x_2=3, y_2=7

Putting values and finding slope

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{7-1}{3-1}\\Slope=\frac{6}{2}\\Slope=3

We get Slope = 3

Finding y-intercept

y-intercept can be found using point (1,1) and slope m = 3

y=mx+b\\1=3(1)+b\\1=3+b\\b=1-3\\b=-2

We get y-intercept b = -2

So, equation of line having slope m=3 and y-intercept b = -2 is:

y=mx+b\\y=3x-2

The equation of the line that goes through points (1,1) and (3,7) is \mathbf{y=3x-2}

A shopkeeper allows 15% discount on the marked price, still he manages to have 7% profit. How much high did he mark his goods ab
lianna [129]

Answer: 25.9\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shopkeeper allows 15% discount on the marked price and still manages a profit of 7%

Suppose the marked price is x

So, the selling price is (1-0.15)x=0.85x

Suppose the cost price is y

\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.85x-y}{y}=7\%\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.85x}{y}-1=0.07\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.85x}{y}=1.07\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{0.85x}{1.07}\\\\\Rightarrow y=0.794x

So, the percentage the shopkeeper marked his goods above cost price

\Rightarrow \dfrac{x-y}{y}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x-0.794x}{0.794}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0.2056}{0.794x}\times 100\\\\\Rightarrow 25.89\%\approx 25.9\%

URGENT, PLEASE HELP! (3/5) -50 POINTS- !please no wrong answers for the points.! A) <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%20%3D%20
shtirl [24]

Answer:

B y = -1/2x + 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that it has a negative slope since the points go from the top left to the bottom right

We can eliminate A and D

The y intercept is where it crosses the y axis

It should cross somewhere between 2 and 4

C  has a y intercept of 9 which is too big

Lets verify with a point

x = -4

y = -4(-4)+9 = 16+9 = 25  (-4,25)  not even close to being near the points on the graph

checking B

y = -1/2 (-4) +7/2

  = 2 + 7/2 = 11/2 = 5.5  it seems  reasonable
