Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
original formula is: y - y1 = m (x - x1) ordinates= (x1, y1)
insert the a corresponding x and y coordinate:
y + 3 = -2 (x + 9)
Don't forget to change the signs depending on whether their positive or negative:
(3, -9) since 3 is positive but there is a minus in the formula it would be -3
since -9 is negative and in the equation there's a minus sign you would change it to positive. (negative times a negative equals a positive)
Number of boys enrolled is 105
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, At a local preschool there is s as ratio of 3 boys to every 4 girls
There are 245 total preschoolers
Ratio of boys and girls = 3 : 4
Number of boys : number of girls = 3 : 4
Let the number of boys be 3x
Let the number of girls be 4x
Total number of preschoolers = 245
Therefore,
number of boys + number of girls = 245
3x + 4x = 245
7x = 245
x = 35
Number of boys = 3x = 3(35) = 105
Thus number of boys is 105
The slope is 2, as for every 20 the graph rises, the line goes over 10, and the formula for slope is rise over run.
