Answer:

y - 1 = 5(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Points (x, y) = (5, 1)

Slope = ?

From the question, the value of the slope is missing. Hence, let's assume a value of 5.

Mathematically, the equation of a straight line is given by the formula;

y = mx + c

Where;

m is the slope.

x and y are the points

c is the intercept.

To find the equation of line, we would use the following formula;

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substituting into the formula, we have;

y - 1 = 5(x - 5)

y - 1 = 5x - 25

y = 5x - 25 + 1

y = 5x - 24 = mx + c

Yes, the variable of interest is two-dimensional.

If you are making a graph about the area of a country, that is a two dimensional measurement. It would be ok to make a graph that is also 2 dimensional.

Given the two expressions shown below:

kobusy [5.1K]

<h2>Answer: A. Both are rational.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Although both expressions have square roots, the result of each square root is an integer, which can be expressed as a fraction.

In this sense:

Rational numbers are all numbers that can be represented as the quotient (division) of two integer numbers. This means they can be represented as a fraction in which the denominator is nonzero.

If we solve both expressions, we will be able to see that the result is an integer that can be expressed as a fraction with two integers:

$\sqrt{4} + \sqrt{25}=2 + 5= 7$ The result is an integer

$7=\frac{7}{1}$

$\sqrt{4} + \sqrt{9}= 2 + 3=5$ The result is an integer

$5=\frac{5}{1}$

Find the value of x so that (x, 12) satisfies y = 4x +4.

Elena L [17]

Plug in 12 for y and rewrite the equation.

12 = 4x + 4

Subtract 4 from both sides.

8 = 4x

Divide by 4 on both sides.

2 = x

The ordered pair is (2, 12) and x = 2.
