Write an equation of a line that passes through each pair of points. (-2,6) (0,0)

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: y= -3x

(there is no y-intercept in the points you listed so if you can find one on a picture of your question, do so. but since i do not see a given y-intercept, i assume it is 0)

To find the slope, use the two points given.

1st: subtract the y-values. 0-6= -6.

2nd: subtract the x-values. 0-(-2)= 2

3rd: you have -6/2.

4th: simplify to get a slope of -3.

Find the GCF 0f 12 and 18

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Euclid's algorithm, we divide the larger by the smaller. If the remainder is zero, the divisor is the GCF. Otherwise, we replace the larger with the remainder and repeat.

18 ÷ 12 = 1 r 6

12 ÷ 6 = 2 r 0 . . . . the GCF is 6

You can also factor the numbers and see what the common factors are.

18 = 2·3·3

12 = 2·2·3

The common factors are 2·3 = 6.

In the factorizations, we see 2 to powers of 1 and 2, and we see 3 to powers of 1 and 2. The GCF is the product of the common factors to their lowest powers: (2^1)(3^1) = (2)(3) = 6

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for this is simply because if you take 40 and 6, turn it into a fraction, then turn it into a percentage, it turns out to be 15%

Use diagrams or the description of equivalent ratios to show thay 2:3,4:6, and 8:12 are equivalent

VikaD [51]

So
lets say we have
a/b=2a/2b
we know that if we invert one and multiply it by the other (divide them), we get 1 because a/a=1 where a=a

so
2/3 and 4/6 are equivelent because if you divide them we get 12/12=1

2/3 and 8/12 are equivilent because if you divide them we get 24/24=1

and sinde 2/3=4/6 and 2/3=8/12, 2/3=4/6=8/12

they are equivlent

10$ is spent on 2 big pails and 1 small one. A smail pail cosf half as much as each big one. How much is spent on a big pail? Ho

Mila [183]

Answer:

$4 is spent on a big pail and $2 is spent on a small pail.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

10$ is spent on 2 big pails and 1 small one.

A small pail cost half as much as each big one.

Now, to find the amount spent on a big pail and on a small pail.

Let the cost of a big pail be $x.$
