7 0

Answer:

Total = 800 books

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

In a library, there are 3 non-fiction books for every 7 fiction books. It means that the ratio of non-fiction books to the fiction books is 3:7.

There if the library has 240 non-fiction books.

Let non fiction books are 3x and fiction books are 7x.

ATQ,

3x=240

x=80

Fiction books = 7x = 7(80) = 560

Total no of books = fiction books + non-fiction books

= 240 + 560

=800

Hence, the total no of books are 800.

using the two points find the slope then write the equation in slope intercept form AND standard form. (-6, 4) and (0, 3)
Paraphin [41]

so to find the slope we do y2- y1/ x2-x1

plug in the coordinates: (-6,4) (0,3)

3-4/ 0--6

3-4/0+6

= -1/6

Then using the formula of slop intercept form: y=mx+b........ use one of the coordinates to plug in

4= -1/6x+b...... multiply -6/1 on both sides of equation ( you do this so -1/6 and -6/1 can cancel out)

-24=b........ Use b to plug in y=mx+b---------> y= -1/6x-24
