Answer:
a) slope intercept form: y = -5/14 x + 7/2
b) point slope form: y - 1 = 3/2(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Line A: (4,1) and (0, 7/2)
Slope = (1 - 7/2)/(4 - 0)
Slope = - 5/2 * 1/4
Slope = - 5/14
Equation in slope intercept form:
y = -5/14 x + 7/2
b)
(4,1) and (0, -5)
Slope = (1 + 5)/(4 - 0) = 6/4 = 3/2
Equation in point slope form:
y - 1 = 3/2(x - 4)
Answer: It makes 30 circles in a minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Cirle every 2 seconds
A minute is 60 seconds
So you divide those to get your answer
60 divided by 2= 30
Answer: 7.5"
Step-by-step explanation:
First, take away the extra 5" on the longer side lengths
40-5-5=30
Then divide by 4 to get the width
30/4=7.5
This works because if you took the 7.5" and added back the 5 inches, it makes 12.5. Then add all 4 sides together, you get 40.
7.5+7.5+12.5+12.5=
1.5 = 1 1/2 = 3/2
When there is a negative exponent, you find the reciprocal of the base, so therefore: 3/2 ^ -2 = 2/3 ^ 2
Then you square the numerator, then square the denominator: 2^2/3^2 = 4/9
Answer:
Equations:
y + 10x = 23
y + 15x = 33
cost of basket with 25 apples = $53
Step-by-step explanation:
A basket with 10 apples cost $23 and a basket with 15 apples cost $33. Note that these costs also include the cost of the basket, which is same in both case. Let the cost of empty basket with "y" and cost of each apple be "x"
Cost of basket and 10 apples is $23. We can transform this statement into an equation as:
y + 10x = 23 Equation 1
Similarly,
Cost of basket and 15 apples is $33. This gives us another equation:
y + 15x = 33 Equation 2
Subtracting Equation 1 from Equation 2 , we get:
y + 15x - (y +10x) = 33 - 23
5x = 10
x = 2
Using the value of x in equation 1, we get:
y + 10(2)= 23
y = 23 - 20
y = 3
This means, cost of basket is $3 and cost of each apple is $2.
Now we can calculate the cost of basket with 25 apples, which will be:
Cost of basket + Cost of 25 apples = Total Cost
3 + 25(2) = 3 + 50 = $53
