Answer:
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
Let’s first find the slope, which is y2-y1/x2-x1
Let’s make the point (-2,-5) our x1 and y1 and let’s make the point (3,5) our x2 and y2.
5+5/3+2
10/5
2 = slope
So far, our equation is looking like this:
y=2x + b
To find the y-intercept (b), let’s plug in one of the points.
Let’s use the point (3,5)
(5)=2(3) + b
5=6 + b
What adds to 6 to equal 5? -1
So, our y-intercept is going to be -1
Finally, our equation is going to look like this:
y=2x-1
Hope I helped!
Answer:
Let w be the width. Then the length is 2w-4. So:
w(2w-4)=96
2w²-4w-96=0
w²-2w-48=0
(w-8)(w+6)=0
w=8 or -6
Throwing out the negative value for w, we get a width of 8 yds, and a length of 12 yds. ☺☺☺☺
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(7/12) of 840 attended the concert:
(7/12)*(840) = 490 students attended the Spring Concert.
(840 - 490) = 350 did not attend
(350/840) is the fraction of students who did not attend. This can be reduced to (35/84)
(350/840) = 0.4167 or 41.67% did not attend.
Answer:
144.9 <= x <= 145.5
Step-by-step explanation:
145.2 + 3 = 145.5
145.2 - 3 = 144.9
144.9 <= x <= 145.5
