Answer: Part a) 375 pounds, Part b) 8 words
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
<u />
Since n represents the number of words there are, we can plug in 20 for n into the equation to get:
C = 15*20 + 75 pounds
C = 300 + 75 pounds
C = 375 pounds
b)
Since C represents the cost of the advert, we can plug in 195 for C into the equation to get:
195 = 15n + 75
Subtract 75 from both sides:
120 = 15n
Divide both sides by 15:
n = 8 words
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, so the equation of the line in point-slope form is:

Rewriting this in standard form,

7.83 x 10^-7 (the *^* is where the power goes)
Answer:
y =
x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 1) ← coordinates of intercepts
m =
=
= 
The y- intercept is - 1 ⇒ c = - 1
y =
x - 1
