Answer:

The equation for the standard form of the line will be:

  • 3x + (-4y) = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • x-intercept = –4
  • y-intercept = 3

The equation of a line in standard form

  • Ax + By = C

where A is a positive integer and B, C are integers

We know the equation of a line in  slope-intercept form

y = mx+b

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept

To calculate the slope, use the gradient formula

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

let  

(x₁, y₁) = (-4, 0)             ∵ x-intercept = (-4, 0)

(x₂, y₂) = (0, 3)              ∵ y-intercept = (0, 3)

m = y₂-y₁ / x₂-x₁

    = (3 - 0) / (0 - (-4))

    = 3 / 4

Thus, the equation in slope-intercept form:

y = mx+b

y = 3/4x + 3

  • Writing in standard form

Multiply y = 3/4x + 3 by 4

4y = 3x + 12

3x-4y = -12

3x + (-4y) = -12

Thus, the equation for the standard form of the line will be:

  • 3x + (-4y) = -12

Peter deposited $8,975 into a savings account 21 years ago. The account has an interest rate of 3.8% and the balance is currentl
Alexus [3.1K]
The formula for the future value of the account is
  A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)
where you have
  A = 19909.20
  P = 8975
  r = 0.038
  t = 21

The resulting equation is not one that can be solved by algebraic means, but we can use a graphing calculator to find n. This graph shows us n = 12, so

the interest compounds monthly.

If you start with Malvin’s age, take half of it, increase that result by 5, then divide by 3, and finally double that, you get 8
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

24 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Malvin's age be x.

  • x / 2
  • x / 2 + 5 = 5x / 10  [ By taking the L.C.M.]
  • ( 5x / 10 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) = 5x / 30   [ Multiply with the reciprocal of 3 ]
  • ( 5x / 30 ) * 2 = 5x / 15

Now let's solve the equation,

5x / 15 = 8

       5x = 8 * 15

       5x = 120

         x = 120 / 5

         x = 24

Therefore, Malvin is 24 years old.

Hope yo liked the answer!!
