Answer:
15<em>y</em> = -28 <em>x</em> + 205.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form of equation is <em>y = mx + c</em> where m is slope and c is the y intercept.
Now slope of line passing through points (-5, 23) and (10, -5):

Now equation of line:
<em> y = mx + c</em>
substituting the value of m in above expression,

Now, since the line is passing through the point (-5, 23) therefore, x = -5 and y = 23. By substituting these values in above equation,



So equation of line in slope intercept form:
Further solving,
15<em>y</em> = -28 <em>x</em> + 205.
Answer: x=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute 17 for n(x)
17=2x+7
Subtract 7 from both sides
10=2x
Divide each side by 2 to get the x by itself
x=5
Answer:
<u>The budget for defense can be represented as x + 660.4</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:
Budget for education is $ 660.4 billion less than budget for defense in some country
x = represents the budget for education, in billion of dollars
2. How can the budget for defense be represented?
x = represents the budget for education, in billion of dollars
x + 660.4 = represents the budget for defense, in billion of dollars also
<u>The correct answer is that the budget for defense can be represented as x + 660.4</u>
Answer:
Remember that the slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1 - 2x the slope is -2 the value of the x term.
So the slope of the new line using point (- 1, 2) is 1/2.
Now use y = mx + b where y = -1, x = 2, and m = 1/2 .
y = mx + b
-1 = 1/2(2) + b solve for "b", the y-intersect
-1 = 1 + b
-2 = b
The line that is perpendicular to y = 1 - 2x is y = 1/2x - 2
