Answer:
y=1/4x
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
m=1/4
so, y=1/4x+b
Now, look at our line's equation so far: . b is what we want, the 1/4 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the the point (4,1).
So, why not plug in for x the number 4 and for y the number 1? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the point you gave!.
(4,1). y=mx+b or 1=1/4 × 4+b, or solving for b: b=1-(1/4)(4). b=0.
y=1/4x+0
15. Because 1 in every 3 picks is orange. 1x5 = 5, and 3x5=15.
7(x - 4) - 3(x + 5)
Distribute the 7 and 3
7x - 28 - 3x - 15
4x - 43
Answer:
(2.4, -1.2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by moving the x and the y to the same side and moving the number across the equal sign in both equations. We should now have y-0.45x=-2.3 and 2y+4.2x=7.8. We can use the elimination method by multiplying the first equation by -2 to get -2y+0.9x=4.6 and 2y+4.2x=7.8. From there, add the two equations together, eliminating y (-2+2=0). We now have 5.1x=12.4; divide both sides by 5.1 to get x=2.4. Then, in any of the two equations, let's use y-0.45x=-2.3, substitute x with 2.4. Now we have y-1.08=-2.3. Add 1.08 to both sides to get y=-1.22; round that to the nearest tenth to get -1.2.
