Answer:

y = 2/7 x - 51/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the line

(y-y1)/(y2-y1) = (x-x1)/(x2-x1)

(y-(-7)/(-9-(-7) = (x-1)/(-6-1)

(y+7)/-2 = (x-1)/-7

(-y-7)/2 = (-x+1)/7

-y-7 = -2/7 x + 2/7

-y = -2/7x +2/7 + 7

y = 2/7 x - 2/7 - 7

y = 2/7 x + (-2-49)/7

y = 2/7 x - 51/7

38. Which equation represents the data in<br> the table?

sergejj [24]

Answer:

C. y = 2x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the points (0, -4) and (2, 0).

y = mx + b (m is slope, b is y-intercept)

m = delta y / delta x

m = 4 / 2

m = 2

y = 2x + b

We can plug in (2, 0):

0 = 4 + b

b = -4

y = 2x - 4

1 pint= 1/8 gallon. How many pints are there in 2/3 gallon.

FrozenT [24]

gallon = pint *0.125

gallon = pint / 8
0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+

0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125+0.125 = 2

16 would be the answer I believe, maybe I'm wrong, double check.
