Answer:

85%

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Calculate how many students passed on their first try. 20 x 70% is 14, so 14 students passed on their first try.
  2. 6 students retook the test. Half of 6 is 3. Add 3 to the 14 students that passed earlier.
  3. Calculate the percent with the equation 17/20 = 0.85. 0.85 = 85%.

If the point (4,-2) is included in a direct variation relationship, which point also belongs in this direct variation? A. (-4,2)
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

(-4,2) belongs in this direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the direct variation relationship is expressed by the equation y = mx ........ (1), where x and y are in direct variation and k is the variation constant.

Now, the point (4,-2) is included in the direct variation relationship, then from equation (1) we get, -2 = 4m

⇒ m =  - \frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the equation (1) becomes y = - \frac{1}{2}x

⇒ x + 2y = 0 ......... (2)

Now, from the given four options only the point (-4,2) satisfies the relation (2).

Hence, (-4,2) belongs in this direct variation. (Answer)

Change 2x-y=-4 into slope-intercept form with steps
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

y=2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept is y = mx+b, where m is slope and b is y intercept.

subtract 2x from both sides of the equation

-y = 4 - 2x

multiply each term in -y = 4 - 2x by -1

(-y) . -1 = 4 . -1 + (-2x) . -1

y= 4. -1 + (-2x) . -1

simplify

y= -4 + 2x

Reorder

y= 2x - 4
