Answer:

(2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to get the equation of the line passing through the points (3, 1) and (–5, –7)

Equation of a line is y = mx+c

m is the slope

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = -7-1/-5-3

m = -8/-8

m = 1

Substitute m = 1 and the point (3, 1) into the equation y = mx+c and get c;

1 = 1(3) + c

1 = 3 + c

c = 1-3

c = -2

The required equation is y = x - 2

We are to look for the coordinate point (x,y) for which both lines intersects, then both equations will be equal as shown;

0.5x - 1 = x - 2

0.5x - x = -2+1

-0.5x = -1

x = -1/-0.5

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into y = x - 2

y = 2-2

y = 0

Hence the the coordinate point is (2, 0)

The school chorus has 52 students which represents 26% of the seventh graders. How many students are in the seventh grade
barxatty [35]

Answer:

There are 200 students in the seventh grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

For equations like these, you have to use the is/of formula, which is:

Percent/100 = is/of.

Since you are trying to find how many students are in the seventh grade, this means that 52 <u><em>is</em></u> 26% of the total amount of students in the seventh grade. So, the formula would look like so:

26/100 = 52/n.

Next, you have to cross multiply, which means you would multiply 26 by n, and 52 by 100.

Then, you are going to have this left over from the cross multiplying:

5200 = 26n.

Divide 26 on both sides, leaving you with:

1n = 200, or n = 200.

Find the quotient. 28 over 0
Jlenok [28]
I am assuming 28/0.  The short answer is that it is infinity.  (Or they may want undefined)

Here is a bit longer explination:
Let's start by taking 28/1, that gives 28. What about 28/0.5 that gives 56, and as we keep decreasing the denominator closer to zero then the quotient will become larger and larger.  We we reach zero, the quotient becomes so large that it is considered infinity.
