What’s the equation in slope-intercept form?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Varvara68 [4.7K]3 years ago
4 0
You can take any 2 points from the table and calculate the slope, as follows:
                     -2-(-4)        2
m = slope = ---------- = ------ = -1/5
                      -5 - 5       -10
The slope-intercept form is    y = mx + b.  You already know m (which is -1/5), and have several points from which to choose to obtain x and y.  Let's use the given point (-2, -1).

Then    -1 = (-1/5)(-2) + b, or   -1 = 2/5 + b.  Solve for b.

-5 = 2 + 5b,  so  5b = -7, and b = -7/5.

The desired equation is     y = (-1/5)x - 7/5.

Find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to line g that contains (P, Q). coordinate plane with line g that passes throu
maw [93]

Answer:

y - Q =  -  \frac{1}{4}(x - P)

Step-by-step explanation:

Line g passes through (-2,6) and (-3,2).

The slope of line g is given by:

\frac{ y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Let's substitute the values to get:

\frac{2 - 6}{ - 3 -  - 2}= \frac{ - 4}{ - 1}  = 4

The equation that is perpendicular to line g will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of 4.

i.e -1/4

If this line passes through (P,Q), then the equation is:

y - Q =  - \frac{1}{4} (x - P)

Irene's mean score on 5 tests is 88%. What is
Anestetic [448]

Answer: The least score she can get on her next test is 455 points.

Step-by-step explanation: From the available information, her current mean score is 88%, and that was achieved from a total of 5 tests. Hence, her mean score was computed as follows;

Mean = (Summation of data)/observed data

Where the observed data is 5 and the mean is 88. Therefore the mean can now be expressed as,

88 = Summation of data/5

By cross multiplication we now have

88 x 5 = Summation of data

440 = Summation of data.

So, if she wants to raise her mean score on her next test to 91%, her least possible score would be derived as

91 = (Summation of data)/5

By cross multiplication we now have

91 x5 = Summation of data

455 = Summation of data

Therefore, on her next test, she must score at least 455 points.
