Answer:

10x+3y=29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points:(x1,y1)=(2,3)

(x2,y2)=(5,-7)

We know, the equation of line passing through two points is given by,

y-y1={(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)}*(x-x1)

Hence,y-3={(-7-3)/(5-2)}*(x-2)

or,y-3=(-10/3)*(x-2)

or,3y-9= -10x+20

or,3y+10x=20+9

or,10x+3y=29 is the required equation.

Test worth 75 points ; test score of 96%

vfiekz [6]

Presuming the question is "How many points did he miss", you would find the solution by multiplying the amount of possible points by the test score as a fraction. 96% is the fraction $\frac{96}{100}$ . Therefore, you get the equation $75*\frac{96}{100}$ . This is equal to 72, so he missed 3 points, or 75-72 points.

He missed 3 points.

A car moved at a speed of 90km/hr for 3 minutes.What distance did it cover?

aniked [119]

Answer:

270kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance, all you have to do is the speed · time

In these types of distance time and word problems, you multiply the other factors, 90 and 3, The time(T) · The speed(S)

So. 90(S) · 3(T) = 270(D)
