The straight line ON has the following equation :
(x - 18)/(x - 0) = (y - 12)/(y - 0)
Where (18,12) are coordinates of N and (0,0) are coordinates of O.
x - 18/x = y - 12/y
-18y = - 12x
y =12x/18 - - - - - (a)
The coordinates satisfy equation (a) are (7.5, 5)
Therefore D is the correct answer.
Good luck
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation in slope intercept form which is
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
The equation
Has a slope of -1/3 so this means that the slope will be decreasing. A negative linear equation increases as we go left. and decreases as we go right. The y intercept is 2. So this means the graph must pass through (0,2) and when x=0, y must be 2.
In other words, look for a line that the y values increase as we go left and decrease we go right. Also look for a point (0,2) and make sure the graph pass through it.
For the first problem the answer is -5/2
2x−7+10=−2
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2x−7+10=−2
2x+−7+10=−2
(2x)+(−7+10)=−2
(Combine Like Terms)
2x+3=−2
Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.
2x+3−3=−2−3
2x=−5
Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.
2x/2=−5/2
x=−5/2
Answer:
x= -5/2
The answer to this question is D ( $0.18 ) per ounce:-)
