Answer:

y = -2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

So to calculate the slope the equation is y1-y2/x1-x2. We substitute in two points, let's use (-3,1) as x1 and y1, and (1,-7) as x2 and y2. Put those points in the equation and you get -7-1/1-(-3), which is -2. Now you have y=-2x+b

To get b plug in a pair of points to the equations, say (1,-7). -7=-2(1)+b, solve that and you get b=-5.

So y=-2x-5.

Store a sells jeans for 7/8 of the Price at store b.

Softa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of jeans at store b be $x.

Let the price of jeans at store a be $7x/8.

But the price of jeans at store a is $35.

Hence 7x/8 = 35

And therefore x = 40

GARY DREW A RECTANGLE WITH A PERIMETER OF 20 INCHES. WHAT COULD BE THE LENGTH,WIDTH,AND AREA FOR THE RECTANGLE THAT GARY DREW?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Assume L=1.5W, where W=width, L= Length of the triangle.

Therefore,

Perimeter (P) = 2(W+L) = 2(W+1.5W) = 2(2.5W) = 5W=20 => W=20/5 = 4 in

Then, L=1.5W = 1.5*4 = 6 in

Area, A= L*W = 6*4 = 24 in^2

Need help on this!!!

Helga [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Range goes from the lowest point on a graph to the highest point, not including anything in between those 2 extremes. We will evaluate the quadratic for the values given. First f(2):

$f(2)=(2)^2-5$ so

f(2) = -1

Now, f(4):

$f(4)=(4)^2-5$ so

f(4) = 11

Now, f(7):

$f(7)=(7)^2-5$ so

f(7) = 44

The lowest y value is -1 and the highest is 44, so the range is from -1 to 44 (I can't tell which of your choices reflects that because it's too small!)

(-7.5) + (-5.3) (-1.9)

Lisa [10]

Answer:

2.57

Step-by-step explanation:

You first have to multiply the -5.3 times the -1.9. Once you do that, you get 10.07. Then, you add the -7.5.

Here are the equation steps:

(-7.5) + (-5.3)x(-1.9)

(-7.5) + (10.07)

2.57
