Answer:

y=-3/4x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding the slope given a point and a slope, we do the following.

y=mx+b (Slope-intercept Form)

m is the slope and x,y are the points

Plug in everything

-1= -3/4(-8)+b

Multiply

-1 = 6 + b

-7 = b

This gives us the final equation of y=-3/4x - 7

Find the equation for the linear function that passes through the points (−2,−5) and (4,4). State your equation with whole numbe

UNO [17]

Answer:

$y=\frac{3}{2} x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find your slope using two points, use the slope formula.

$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

Your y1 term is -5, your y2 term is 4.

Your x1 term is -2, your x2 term is 4.

$\frac{4-(-5)}{4-(-2)} \\\\\frac{9}{6} \\\\\frac{3}{2}$

Now that we have your slope, you can use the slope and one of your points in point-slope form to find your y-intercept.

$y-y1=m(x-x1)\\y-4=\frac{3}{2} (x-4)\\y-4=\frac{3}{2} x-6\\y=\frac{3}{2} x-2$

Yasmine estimated the difference of 87.71 and 5.8 by rounding each number to the nearest whole. What was Yasmine's estimate, and

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Yasmine estimated the difference to be 82. The actual difference is 81.91.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rounded whole number of 87.71 is 88 and the rounded whole number of 5.8 is 6.

So, the difference between the numbers 87.71 and 5.8 by rounding each number to the nearest whole numbers will be

(88 - 6) = 82.

The actual difference between the numbers 87.71 and 5.8 is (87.71 - 5.8) = 81.91.

Therefore, Yasmine estimated the difference to be 82. The actual difference is 81.91. (Answer)
