What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-6, -2) and has a slope of 1/6

Mathematics

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Step 1: Determine b by using the point (-6,-2), the given slope, and the slope intercept formula, y = mx + b.

$y = mx + b\\\\-2 = \frac{1}{6}(-6) + b\\\\-2 = -1 + b\\\\-1 = b$

Step 2: Now that we have b, we can determine the equation of the line.

$y = \frac{1}{6}x -1$

I didn't use + (-1) because b is negative. Therefore you need to change the equation from y = 1/6x + (-1) to y = 1/6x - 1.

A peqch pie is made with 13 peaches, which are evenly distributed throughout the pie. If Joe ate one slice that contained exactl

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

138.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the peach pie is a circle, we have a total angle of 360°.

We need to determine what fraction of the total pie of 13 peaches is the 5 peaches contained in Joe's slice.

This is number of peaches in Joe's slice/total number of peaches in pie = 5/13. To find the angle Joe's slice measures, we multiply 5/13 by 360°.

So, 5/13 × 360°

= 0.3846 × 360°

= 138.46°

≅ 138.5° to the nearest tenth of a degree

Find the sum that amounts to Rs 9,144 in 3 years at 9% per year simple interest.

Hunter-Best [27]

Given:

Amount = Rs. 9,144

Time = 3 years.

Rate of simple interest = 9%

To find:

The principal value.

Solution:

The formula for simple interest is:

$I=\dfrac{P\times r\times t}{100}$

Where, P is principal, r is the simple rate of interest, and t is the number of years.

Putting $r=9,t=3$ in the above formula, we get

$I=\dfrac{P\times 9\times 3}{100}$

$I=\dfrac{27P}{100}$

$I=0.27P$

We know that,

$\text{Amount}=\text{Principal + Interest}$

$9144=P+0.27P$

$9144=1.27P$

Divide both sides by 1.27, we get

$\dfrac{9144}{1.27}=P$

$7200=P$

Therefore, the principal value is Rs. 7200.

I will mark brainliest

uranmaximum [27]

To start off, simplify the equation if needed:
3m>=21
Since both sides are divisible by 3, you can simplify for the equation to be

m>=7

Next is to find the domain of the line graph. Since the sign is more than or equal to (>=), the circle is closed.
And since m is MORE THAN OR EQUAL TO, the section starts at 7 (closed circle), and continues after. Therefore, your answer will be the third selection.

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Opt A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

65% is 100 based number, this means that 65% is the same as 65/100, or 0,65.

65% of 20 is obtained performing the following operation:

0,65 * 20

65*20/100
