Answer:

y = -1/4x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we have the slope intercept form as;

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

from the question;

m is -1/4

So we have :

y = -1/4x + b

To get the value of b, we substitute the coordinates given and solve for b

Firstly, multiply through by 4

That will

give ;

4y = -x + 4b

4(-4) = -12 + 4b

-16 = -12 + 4b

-16 + 12 = 4b

4b = -4

b = -4/4

b = -1

So the equation in the slope intercept form is;

y = -1/4x -1

How do i figure it out

olchik [2.2K]

X + x + 1 + x + 2 = 12
x + x + x + 3 = 12
subtract 3 for each side
x + x + x = 9
3x = 9
divide 3 from each side
x = 3

Small side 3 feet
Middle side 4 feet
Long side 5 feet

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

1350

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial number of members = 600

Now,

Expected members = Initial members × ( 1 + r )ⁿ

by geometric progression

here,

r is the growth rate

n is the number of years

thus,

Number of members that expect at the end of 2 year

Expected members = Initial members × ( 1 + r )ⁿ

r = 25%

n = 2 years

Expected members = 600 × ( 1 + 0.25 )²

= 937.5

similarly,

Numbers of members that expect at the end of 3 year

Expected members = Initial members × ( 1 + r )ⁿ

r = 22%

n = 1 years (i.e after the end of 2 year)

Initial members = 937.5 (i.e after the end of 2 years is the initial for the starting of third year )

Expected members = 937.5 × ( 1 + 0.22 )¹

= 1143.75

Numbers of members that expect at the end of 4 year

Expected members = Initial members × ( 1 + r )ⁿ

r = 18%

n = 1 years (i.e after the end of 3 year)

Initial members = 1143.75 (i.e after the end of 3 years is the initial for the starting of fourth year )

Expected members = 1143.75 × ( 1 + 0.18 )¹

= 1349.625

Hence,

Total expected people = 1349.625 ≈ 1350

For the equations given below, which statement is true?

allochka39001 [22]

Answer: C. The equations have the same solution because the second equation can be obtained by adding 6 to both sides of the first equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the first equation is:

$-3x-8=19$

And the second equation is:

$-3x-2=25$

According to the Addition property of equality:

If $a=b$ ; then $a+c=b+c$

Then, you can add 6 to both sides of the first equation to keep it balanced. Then, you get:

$-3x-8=19\\\\-3x-8+(6)=19+(6)$

$-3x-2=25$

Therefore, you can observe that the second equation can be obtained by adding 6 to both sides of the first equation, therefore, the equations have the same solution.

If you want to verify this, you can solve for "x" from both equations:

- First equation:

$-3x-8=19\\\\-3x=19+8\\\\x=\frac{27}{-3}\\\\x=-9$

- Second equation:

$-3x-2=25\\\\-3x=25+2\\\\x=\frac{27}{-3}\\\\x=-9$
