Find an equation of the line having the given slope containing the given point slope -9 through (1,-8)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Darya [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

y = - 9x + 1

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 = - 9, hence

y = - 9x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (1 , - 8) into the partial equation

- 8 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 8 + 9 = 1

y = - 9x + 1 ← equation of line

I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! !!<br><br><br> (picture included with ONE question ^^^^^) only part a
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

A. y = 1.5m + 7

B. at 7 months the baby will weigh 17.5 pounds

C. Since the baby is born weighing 7 pounds, at 0 months he will weigh 7 pounds. This tells us that the y-intercept will be seven. And since the baby is gaining 1.5 pounds every month, this means that the slope will be 1.5 and m will be the x of our y = mx + b equation. For part B, we simply plug in 7 to m and solve by multiplying 1.5 and 7 to get 10.5, then adding 7 to get 17.5.

What is the equation of a line that passes through (-2,1) and is parallel to y=3x-4
Rama09 [41]
If a line is parallel to another, the slopes of both lines are the same. So for this problem, you can infer that the slope of the line you're trying to find is 3.

To find the actual equation of the line, you can use the given coordinates and plug them into the point slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

plug the given y coordinate into y1 and the given x coordinate into x1. m is the slope, so plug in 3 for m.

y - 1 = 3(x +2) Use distributive property for right side of equation

y - 1 = 3x + 6 add 1 to both sides to cancel -1 on left side of equation and isolate y

Equation of line: y = 3x + 7

At a baseball game, 3 drinks and 4 hotdogs cost $15.00. At the same game, 3 drinks and 1 hotdog cost $10.50. Find the cost for a
Serhud [2]

Answer:

$3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the cost of drinks be x

and the cost of hotdogs be y

so

3x+4y=15-------1

also

3x+y= 10.5------2

solve 1 and 2

 3x+4y=15

-3x+y= 10.5

     3y= 4.5

divide both sides by 3

y= 4.5/3

y= $1.5

Put y= 1.5 in 1

3x+4(1.5)=15

3x+6= 15

3x=15-6

3x= 9

x= 9/3

x= $3

Hence the cost of a drink is $3
