Step-by-step explanation:

let eqn be y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m = (9 - 1)/(-3 - (-7))

m = 2

sub (-7, 1):

y - 1 = 2(x + 7)

therefore, the equation is y - 1 = 2(x + 7)

hammer [34]

Answer:

Sally has been measuring the tree for 4 months

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is as follows;

Sally has been measuring the tree in her yard for a science project. The tree has grown 1/2 of an inch each month and grown a total of 2 inches taller. How many months has Sally been measuring this tree?

.........................................................................................

Solution;

The tree has grown 1/2 of an inch each month and has grown a total of 2 inch taller.

We now need to know the number of months in which the measuring has been taking place.

To know the number of months, we simply need to divide the change in height which is 2 inch by the individual month growth rate which is 1/2 inch

So mathematically, that would be 2/1/2 = 2 * 2 = 4 months

Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes. What would be Jake's running time as a decimal?

VikaD [51]

$\text{Given that Jake completed a marathon race in 3 hours and 12 minutes.}\\
\\
\text{we need to find this time in decimals. so we will convert 12 minutes into hours}\\
\\
\text{We know that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour. }\\
\\
\text{so in 1 minute there will be}=\frac{1}{60 }\text{ hour}$

$\text{hence in 12 minutes we have}=\frac{1}{60}\times 12=\frac{1}{5}=0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
\text{hence the Jake's running time is}=3\text{hours + 12 minute}\\
\\
=3\text{ hours}+0.2 \text{ hours}\\
\\
=3.2 \text{ hours}$

Hence, Jake's running time in decimal is: 3.2 hours
