What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (2,0) and has a slope of 5/2

1 answer:

5 0

Answer :

y = 5/2x - 5

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 )
Here m = 5/2 , thus
y = 5/2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (2, 0) into the partial equation
0 = 5 + c ⇒ c = 0 - 5
y = 5/2x - 5 ← equation of line

If f(x) =7 +4x and g(x) =1/2 what is the value of (f/g)

saw5 [17]

Answer:

10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find (f/g)(5), find f(5) and (g5) then divide the values.

f(5) = 7 + 4(5) = 27

g(5) = 1/2 (5) = 2.5

27/2.5 = 10.8
