How would I figure out a linear equation with two plot points with fractions? (1/3(6),3) and (1/2(19),-2) are my two plot points

. I was able to graph them on Desmos, but I can't seem to figure out how I would go about figuring out the slope and y-intercept in this case... the fractions are what's throwing me off here. Please help!

Answer: m=\frac{-30}{79},\ y=5.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points are \left(6\frac{1}{3},3\right),\ \left(19\frac{1}{2},-2\right)

Convert mixed numeral to fraction

\left(6\frac{1}{3},3\right)\Rightarrow \left(\dfrac{19}{3},3\right)\\\\\left(19\frac{1}{2},-2\right)\Rightarrow \left(\dfrac{39}{2},-2\right)

Slope of the line is

\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{3-(-2)}{\dfrac{19}{3}-\dfrac{39}{2}}\\\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{5}{\dfrac{38-117}{6}}\\\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{-30}{79}

Equation of line

\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-3}{x-\dfrac{19}{3}}=\dfrac{-30}{79}\\\\\text{for y-intercept, put x=0}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{y-3}{0-\dfrac{19}{3}}=\dfrac{-30}{79}\\\\\Rightarrow y-3=\dfrac{190}{79}\\\\\Rightarrow y=3+2.40\\\Rightarrow y=5.40

A scientist mixes water (containing no salt) with a solution that contains 35% salt. She wants to obtain 245 ounces of a mixture
sesenic [268]

Answer:

140 ounces of water and 105 ounces of 35% salt solution.

Explanation:

Let x be the ounces of water that need to be added and y be the ounces of 35% solution that need to to be added.

We know that the total of ounces of water and of 35% solution must be 245 ounces:

x+y=245

35% of  x is the salt, and since no salt is added with addition of y  liters of water, this must be equal to the amount of salt in the final 15% solution:

0.35x=0.15*245

we solve for  x and get:

x=105

We put this value into x+y=245 and solve for y to get:

y=140

Thus we have 140 ounces of water and 105 ounces of 35% solution.

On Monday, the high was 60oF. On Tuesday, the high was 10% more than Monday. Then on Wednesday, the temperature decrease by 8%.
Arada [10]

Answer:

60.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Monday: 60 degrees

Tuesday: temperature increases by 10 percent

60 + 10% of 60

60 + .10*60 = 70 +6 = 66

Wednesday: temperature decreases by 8 percent

66 - 8%of 66

66 - .08*66 = 66 -5.28=60.72
