Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (9, 1) and (7, 8).

1 answer:

5 0

8 - 1 = 7
7 - 9 = -2
7 divided by -2 is -3.5

The slope is -3.5 now we need to find the y intercept.

To find the y intercept do -3.5 times 7 and you get -24.5.
Next do 8- -24.5 and you get 32.5 which is the y intercept.

The equation would be y = -3.5x + 32.5

Answer:

$605

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Taho Earns His Regular Pay Of $11 Per Hour For Up To 40 Hours Of Work Per Week. For each hour over 40 hours of work per week. Taho earns 1½ times his regular pay. How much does Taho earn in a week in which he works 50 hours?

a. $550

b. $605

c. $625

d. $750

e. $825

For the first $40 that Taho works, he earns $11 x 40 = $440

For the extra $10 (since he worked 50 hrs that week)

1½ of $11 per hr = 1.5 x $11 = $16.5

for the 10 days extra = $16.5 x 10 = $165

total pay = $440 + $165 = $605
