When writing an equation of a line, keep in mind that you ALWAYS need two pieces of information when you go to write an equation:
1. ANY point on the line
2. Slope (m)
3. Y-intercept (b)

Once you have these two pieces of information, you plug the x and y values from your point and the slope (m) value into the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b.


Start by solving for the slope of each line. We need two ordered pairs (x, y) from each line to solve for the slope:

Offer A:
(0, 400) and (80, 700)

Let (x1, y1) = (0, 400)
(x2, y2) = (80,700)

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (700 – 400)/(80 – 0) = 300/80 = 15/4

Therefore, the slope (m) for Offer A = 15/4

Next, we need the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point where the graph of the linear equation crosses the y-axis. The y-intercept is also the value of y when x = 0. One of the points we used for solving the slope for Offer A reflects the description for the y-intercept, which is point (0, 400). The y-coordinate is 400–this is the y-intercept of the line.

Now, we can establish the linear equation for Offer A: y = 15/4x + 400

Do the same steps for the other offer:

Offer B:
(0, 500)) and (100,900)
Let (x1, y1) = (0, 500)
(x2, y2) = (100,900)

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (900 - 500)/(100 – 0) = 400/100 = 4

Therefore, the slope for Offer B is 4.

Next, we need the y-intercept. For Offer B, the line crosses at point (0, 500). The y-coordinate, 500 is the y-intercept (b) of the line.

The linear equation for Offer B is:
y = 4x + 500



**NOTE: please double-check the coordinates that I used for solving the slopes of each line before using my inputs. I had a slight difficulty going through the coordinates of your graph because it’s a bit blurry (using my phone to write this post).

Erika worked 14 hours last week and 20 hours this week. If she earns $9 per hour, how much did she earn during these two weeks?
ozzi

we know that

Erika earns \$9 per hour

so

By proportion

Find how much she earn during the total hours of two weeks

The total hours of two weeks is equal to

14+20=34\ hours

\frac{9}{1} \frac{\$}{hour} =\frac{x}{34} \frac{\$}{hours} \\ \\x=34*9 \\ \\x=\$306

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

\$306

The rate at which a quantity of a radioactive substance decays is proportional to the quantity of the substance. The constant of
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

\frac{dN}{dt} = λN           N(0) = 6

N(t) = N₀e^(λt)

Applying the inital value condition

N(t) = 6e^(λt)

Step-by-step explanation:

Summarizing  the information briefly and stating the  variables in the problem.

t = time elapsed during the decay

N(t) = the amount of the radioactive substance remaining after time t

λ= The constant of proportionality  is called the decay constant or decay rate

Given the initial conditions

N(0) = N₀ = 6

The rate at which a quantity of a radioactive substance decays (\frac{dN}{dt}) is proportional to the quantity of the substance (N)  and λ is the constant of proportionality  is called the decay constant or decay rate :

\frac{dN}{dt} = λN          

N(t) = N₀e^(λt) ......equ 1

substituting the value of  N₀ = 6 into equation 1

N(t) = 6e^(λt)
