Find an equation of the line passing through each of the following pairs of points. a (−3, 1), (0, 3)

Svetlanka [38]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{3}-\stackrel{y1}{1}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{0}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}}\implies \cfrac{2}{0+3}\implies \cfrac{2}{3}$

$\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{1}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{2}{3}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)}]\implies y-1=\cfrac{2}{3}(x+3) \\\\\\ y-1=\cfrac{2}{3}x+2\implies y=\cfrac{2}{3}x+3$

Priya has completed 9 exam questions. This is 60% of the questions on the exam. How many questions are on the exam?

USPshnik [31]

the whole exam will be 100%, and let's say that's "x" questions, but we also know that 9 is 60% of that so

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 9&60 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{9}=\cfrac{100}{60}\implies \cfrac{x}{9}=\cfrac{5}{3}\implies 3x=45 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{45}{3}\implies x=15$
