You have the right idea so far, but you forgot to finish it up.
Point slope form is
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where m is the slope, and (x1,y1) is the point the line goes through. As you can see, we have infinitely many choices for (x1,y1). If you use the y intercept point (0,5), then
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = -1(x - 0) ..... this is one of infinitely many possible answers
OR
If you use the point (2,3), then we'd say
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 3 = -1(x - 2) ..... which is another possible answer
There are infinitely many other choices, but I'm only picking the points in which your teacher has shown as big dots.
By the way, nice work on getting the correct answer for the slope-intercept form.
Answer:
You take 6% of a number and the resulting number is 27.
To do this you need to change the percent into a fraction.
6% = 6/100
This is the number you need to multiply to the number you need to find, A.
6/100 A = 27
Solve for x
6 A = 27x100
A= 2700/6
A = 450
Check your answer:
6/100 (A) = 27
6/100 (450) = 27
(6x450) /100 = 27
2700 / 100 = 27
27 = 27

Answer:
The run is -7.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know that slope = rise/run, we can calculate the run by inputting the given numbers.
So,
-3 = 21/x and we need to solve for x.
When we cross multiply we get -3x=21.
Then, divide -3 on both sides and x = -7
Answer:
12,662 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of books = 75,972
No. of science books = ⅓ of 75,972 = ⅓*75,972 = 25,324 books.
No. of business books = 75% of the remaining books = 75% of (75,972 - 25,324)
= 
No. of business books = 37,986
No. of maths books in the math section = 75,972 - (25,324 + 37,986)
= 75,972 - 63,310
= 12,662 books
