Use y=mx + b, which is slope intercept form

b = y intercept(when x=0)
m = slope

You need to find the y intercept. Use your coordinates and substitute it in the slope intercept equation.

we use (6, -8)

y = mx + b

Then, -8 = -3/2(6) + b

-8 = -9 + b
1 = b

Thus,

y = -3/2x + 1

Principle 1600, rate 6 ,time 2.5 years find CI​
shutvik [7]

Answer:

C.I = $251.2

Step-by-step explanation:

P = Principal amount = 1600

r = rate of annual interest = 6%

n = period / no. of years = 2.5 years

C.I = (P* (1+r^n))-P

C.I = (1600*(1+0.06)^2.5))-1600

C.I = (1600*(1.06^2.5))-1600

C.I = (1600*1.157)-1600

C.I = 1851.2-1600

C.I = 251.2

The population of a small town in central Florida has shown a linear decline in the years 2001-2012. In 2001 the population was
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, to keep our numbers manageable, we are going to let year 2001 = 0 so year 2012 = 11.  The coordinates that result from these years/population numbers are (0, 22200) and (11, 13950). Since this linear, we can plug those 2 coordinate pairs into the slope equation to find the rate at which the population is decreasing in people per year:

m=\frac{13950-22200}{11-0}=\frac{-8250}{11}=-750\frac{people}{year} That means that the town is losing people at the rate of 750 per year. We can use that slop along with one of the coordinate points to write the linear equation representing this situation:

y-22200=-750(x-0) and

y = -750x + 22200. That answers part A.

Now for B we need to find y when x = 13 (remember we let year 2001 = 0, so year 2014 = 13):

y = -750(13) + 22200 so

y = 12450 people in the year 2014

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

E) Ray DC

Step-by-step explanation:

The bisecting line is Ray DC because comparing your answer, Ray CB is still part of the original line AB. The Bisecting line would be a ray that intersects on the original line AB. Which in this case would be Ray DC.
