Answer: y = 9x/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use slope formula to find the slope of a line that passes through two points (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂)

<h3>m = ∆y/∆x = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) </h3>

Given points are:

P(x₁ , y₁) = (0, 0)  origin

Q(x₂ , y₂) = (-4, -9)

Substituting these two known points in the slope formula, we have:

m = (-9-0)/(-4-0) = -9/-4 = 9/4  

Now we can use the point-slope formula to write the equation of a line given a point on the line and the slope of the line:  

m = 9/4 , given point P(x₁ , y₁) = (0, 0)  

Formula :

(y-y₁) = m(x-x₁)  

(y-0) = 9/4(x-0)  

<h3>y = 9x/4 </h3>

Answer: y = 9x/4

What percent of 80 is 12?<br><br>what number is 75% of 52? ​
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

<em>The answer for the first question is: </em>

<em>12/80 =</em>

<em>12 ÷ 80 =</em>

<em>0.15 =</em>

<em>0.15 × 100/100 =</em>

<em>0.15 × 100% =</em>

<em>(0.15 × 100)% =</em>

<h2><em>15%</em></h2>

<em>Then, the answer for the second question is: </em>

<em>75% × 52 =</em>

<em>(75 ÷ 100) × 52 =</em>

<em>(75 × 52) ÷ 100 =</em>

<em>3,900 ÷ 100 =</em>

<h2><em>39 </em></h2>

Claire is putting up a fence around her rectangular garden. The length is four less than double the width. The perimeter is 22 f
Doss [256]

Answer:

The dimensions are 6 by 5 feet.

Length = 6 feet.

Width = 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = L

Let the width = W

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

L = 2W - 4 ........equation 1

22 = 2L + 2W .......equation 2

Substituting the value of "L" into equation 2, we have;

22 = 2(2W - 4) + 2W

22 = 4W - 8 + 2W

22 + 8 = 6W

30 = 6W

W = 30/6

Width, W = 5 feet.

To find the length, L

Substituting the value of "W" into equation 1, we have;

L = 2W - 4

L = 2(5) - 4

L = 10-4

Length, L =6 feet

Therefore, the dimensions of the garden are 6 by 5 feet.
