Answer:

y = -2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

(1, -6) (-3, 2)

\frac{-6-2}{1-(-3)}=\frac{-8}{4} =-2

The slope is -2

y = -2x + b

So let's find b, insert 2 for y and -3 for x to find b

2 = -2(-3) + b

2 = 6 + b

Subtract 6 from both sides to get b alone

-4 = b

We found what b equals (the y-intercept), which is -4

So, the equation is y = -2x - 4

Hope this helps and pls do mark me brainliest:)

Manav is painting a rectangular room and the dimensions of this room are given by x,y and z feet. Manav takes 8 hours to paint a
zhenek [66]

Answer:

B) 36 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the room are x, y and z feet. It is given that x = 6 feet.

Manav took 8 hours to paint the wall with dimensions x and z.

This means, in 8 hours Manav painted area = xz = 6z

In 1 hour Manav painted area = \frac{6z}{8}

Manav took 4 hours to paint the wall with dimensions y and z.

This means, in 4 hours Manav painted area = yz

In 1 hour Manav painted area = \frac{yz}{4}

Manav took 12 hours to paint the ceiling with dimensions x and y.

This means, in 12 hours Manav painted area = xy = 6y

In 1 hour Manav painted the area = \frac{6y}{12}=\frac{y}{2}

Since, Manav works at constant rate, this means the worked done in 1 hour in all 3 cases would be the same. So we can write:

\frac{6z}{8}=\frac{yz}{4}=\frac{y}{2}

Using the first two equations, we get:

\frac{6z}{8}=\frac{yz}{4}\\\\ \frac{6}{8}=\frac{y}{4}\\\\ y=\frac{6}{8} \times 4\\\\ y = 3

Using the last two equations, we get:

\frac{yz}{4}=\frac{y}{2}\\\\ \frac{z}{4}=\frac{1}{2}\\\\z=2

So, we have the follwoing dimensions of the room:

x = 6 feet

y = 3 feet

z = 2 feet

So the volume of the room is =  6 x 3 x 2 = 36 cubic feet

87,1/2% of 96 = Z<br> Please tell me HOW to do it!
Kitty [74]

Answer:

84 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

What you are doing is multiplying them together.

87,1/2% put into a calculator comes out to 7/8 or .875.

You will take that and multiply it to 96

7/8*96=84.
