Answer:

y = - \frac{5}{3} x + 2

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 = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, - 8)

m = \frac{-8-7}{6+3} = \frac{-15}{9} = - \frac{5}{3} , then

y = - \frac{5}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (6, - 8) , then

- 8 = - 10 + c ⇒ c = - 8 + 10 = 2

y = - \frac{5}{3} x + 2 ← equation of line

What is the horizontal asymptote of the function? f(x)=3x2^x+4
torisob [31]

The vertical asymptotes of a rational function may be found by examining the factors of the denominator that are not common to the factors in the numerator. Vertical asymptotes occur at the zeros of such factors

Choose the graph that matches the inequality ­ y < –2x + 4.
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that if its < or >, the line is - - - -, not a fully dark line.

So it would be either A or C

Plot in some numbers for x

Less than would be to the left.

So it wouldn't be A, leaving us with C

There are 550 students at Martin Middle School. One bundred and eighty- seven students walk to school. what percent of the stude
Anvisha [2.4K]
For a question like this, all you have to do is remember that a percentage is simply a fraction expressed as a decimal. So, all we have to do is:
\frac{187}{550}, and then multiply our decimal answer by 100 to get the percentage:
\frac{187}{550} = 0.34
0.34 x 100 = 34
Therefore 34% of the students walk to school.
I hope this helped and remember to please try and understand the maths that got the answer, not just writing the answer down :))
