Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find y=mx+b we need to identify two points. I picked (20,45) and (50,65)

From these two points we can find the slope, m.

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(65-45)/(50-20)

m=20/30=2/3 so now our line is

y=2x/3+b, we can solve for b using either point, I’ll use (20,45)

45=2(20)/3+b

45=40/3+b

b=45-40/3

b=(135-40)/3

b=95/3 so the line is

y=(2x+95)/3

How to find equation of line passing through the points (x,y)

DochEvi [55]

First you must acknowledge that you are dealing with a line therefore you must write linear equation or linear function in this case.

Linear function has a form of,

$y=mx+n$

Then calculate the slope m using the coordinates of two points. Let say A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2),

$m=\dfrac{\Delta{y}}{\Delta{x}}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Now pick a point either A or B and insert coordinates of either one of them in the linear equation also insert the slope you just calculated, I will pick point A.

$y_1=mx_1+n$

From here you solve the equation for n,

$y_1=mx_1+n\Longrightarrow n=y_1-mx_1$

So you have slope m and variable n therefore you can write down the equation of the line,

$f(x)=m_{slope}x+n_{variable}$

Hope this helps.

Suppose you buy a phone for $200 and its value depreciates linearly. If the phone is worth $115 after four years, then what is t

vredina [299]

Answer:

$72.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial value = $200
Depreciated value after 4 years = $115

Since depreciation rate is linear, then:

200 - 4x = 115
4x = 200 - 115
4x = 85
x = 85/4
x = 21.25

Value after 6 years:

200 - 6*21.25 = 200 - 127.5 = $72.5

The area for a trapezoid is given by the formula below, where a and b are the lengths of the two bases and h is the height of th

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = $\frac{h(a + b)}{2}$

Substitute the given values with h = a, then

16.5 = $\frac{a(a+8)}{2}$ ( multiply both sides by 2 )

33 = a(a + 8) ← distribute

33 = a² + 8a ( subtract 33 from both sides )

0 = a² + 8a - 33 ← in standard form

0 = (a + 11)(a - 3) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for a

a + 11 = 0 ⇒ a = - 11

a - 3 = 0 ⇒ a = 3

However, a > 0 thus a = 3

Hence the height is 3 feet

Which two statements contradict each other?

Rudik [331]

The answer is C. To contradict something is to say or do the opposite of what is stated. If point S lies on plane PQR, it cannot not lie on plane PQR.
